Raytown Quality Schools
Raytown Quality Schools is a leading educational institution located in the suburbs of Kansas City, Missouri. Serving a diverse student population of 9,000 and employing 1,400 staff members, the district covers a vast 35 square mile area with 25 facilities.
Raytown Quality Schools faced challenges with their outdated phone system, which hindered effective communication and collaboration among staff and administrators. The system's limitations were particularly noticeable for principals and administrators who required reliable mobile communication options to stay connected while working outside the office.
To address the communication challenges, Raytown Quality Schools sought a comprehensive overhaul of their outdated phone system. Their goals included implementing a user-friendly system, providing mobile communication capabilities for principals and administrators, and improving overall communication and collaboration across the district.
By partnering with Mitel, Raytown Quality Schools successfully implemented a communication system that exceeded their goals. The deployment of over 1,400 handsets in classrooms district-wide provided a user-friendly solution for all staff members. Mitel's MiCollab solution enabled principals and administrators to seamlessly connecty with their office offices regardless of location, effectively replicating the in-office experience remotely. The new system also enhanced communication, collaboration, and operational efficiency across the district.
“One of the big benefits of Mitel that we really enjoy in our district is the MiCollab soft client that can go on our mobile devices. With it, our principals and administrators are able to stay connected to their offices even when they’re not there.”
