Student Communication
System
The communications system is a core module of Maestro SIS that helps education providers streamline messaging, improve engagement, and automate notifications for staff, students, and families. By embedding communications directly into the SIS, institutions eliminate fragmented tools and maintain consistent, secure, and auditable messaging across academic and administrative workflows.
Strengthen Communication Across Every Learning Environment
Maestro's student communication software, built directly within our school management software, helps K–12 schools, higher education institutions, career and trade schools, and professional training programs manage messaging efficiently.
With Maestro SIS, institutions can engage both prospective and current students, improve enrollment, boost retention, and support student success — all through a single, secure platform.
All communications — including email, SMS, and in-system notifications — are logged and tied directly to each student's record, ensuring consistent, auditable, and secure interactions.
