Focus on Student Success Workshops Aeries SIS has seen many feature enhancements over the past several years aimed at helping schools focus on student success. Aeries Student Information System has seen an evolution from a student data management system focused on gathering and reporting required data to the state to an education success platform built around capitalizing on actionable insights derived from data and engaging parents and students to invest into the collaborative planning and execution of their education, college, and career success. These workshops are dedicated to presenting newer features within Aeries that your school or district can use to set your students up for life-long success.
