Free up your board’s hands and minds....
Free up your board’s hands and minds by giving them instant, online access before, during and after each meeting.
Sparq Meetings is a user-friendly service for any organization with a board, that is responsive to the diverse functionality of individual board needs.
Think about how much wasted time and energy you spend today. Sparq Meetings provides a dynamic platform for the board to collaboratively plan and execute business by accessing not only current documents, but all materials that have been discussed in the past. The value of transparency and collaborative planning is invaluable.
Sparq Meetings streamlines the meeting process digitally, reducing the mounds of paper, by developing board packets, posting agendas, sharing minutes, and storing all materials and documents online while creating the organizational structure needed to increase the efficiency of the process. No more handwritten, scribbled notes, shoved in a hidden away binder.
Enhance communication with both the board members and district patrons by making meeting information and board policies readily available to anyone who desires to interact with the information.
As a superintendent, it seems like there is never enough time to get everything done. Sparq Meetings adds hours back to my month by making the organization of Board and committee meetings simple. From creating the right meeting template, to adding attachments and including rationale to guide meeting discussions, Sparq allows me to work smarter instead of harder. Our Board meetings flow smoothly because Sparq allows me to prewrite motions and organizes our voting procedures. When our Board meetings are over, they are over. I download the meeting minutes before Board members leave the room. If I ever have a question or need technical advice, the Sparq Meeting team provides amazing support. Sparq creates calm in what can sometimes be a chaotic process.

Franklin Public Schools realized an immediate decrease in production costs associated with preparing for board meetings after implementing the Sparq Meeting service. The amount of time spent collecting, arranging, and publishing items for board meetings has greatly been reduced as well. I would strongly recommend this service to any school district wishing to save time and money.

Sparq Meetings provides an intuitive, easy-to-navigate menu that organizes our board agendas and information in an efficient and purposeful manner.
Sparq Meetings also continues to provide updates that "evolve" with the needs of its users and the system is proactive in adding new features that are a direct result of feedback from its users. This digital system allows for searchable content and the meetings are archived in an organized fashion that is easily accessible.
