Working Smarter, Not Harder

EverDriven’s District Portal served 500+ school districts nationwide — but something wasn’t working. The assumption was complexity. The reality was something else entirely.

Through 14 district interviews, 7 internal stakeholder sessions, a 60-point UX audit, and behavioral data analysis, the research revealed a projected $4.7M problem rooted not in complicated workflows, but in information access. Districts didn’t need a simpler portal. They needed one that actually showed them what they needed to see.

The portal is being retired. The designs aren’t — elements of the second iteration are being carried directly into the enterprise platform that replaces it.
