Propolis is built for homeschool co-ops, microschools, and learning pods that need more than a spreadsheet but less than enterprise software.
Everything a director, teacher, or family needs — built into one place, free to start, and ready the day you open enrollment.
Open enrollment, application review, and waitlist collection for Coming Soon co-ops.
Magic-link family onboarding, CSV import, and a shareable join link mean new families are inside the hive in minutes.
Build your schedule by section. Assign teachers, students, rooms, and meeting days.
Full class management — multiple offerings, billing per class, and clean handoff to attendance and announcements.
Tap-in for every comb. See who's present, who's late, who's away.
Teachers take attendance by section. Directors get weekly and monthly reports for the whole co-op.
Targeted announcements with an audience builder — all families, specific classes, grade bands, or teachers only.
Unlimited posts on Hive Pro. Families see what's for them and nothing else.
A full inbox for directors, teachers, and families. Replies stay threaded.
No more lost DMs — every conversation tied to the right person, section, and co-op.
Tuition, fees, and class billing in one ledger. Online payments via Stripe.
Generate invoices, accept card payments from families, and track who's current — no separate billing tool needed.
Schedule shifts and track required hours. Celebrate the top pollinators.
Set per-family hour requirements, let parents log their own hours, and run end-of-term reports.
A photo repository for the year, plus yearbook drives that request photos from families.
Collect, organize, and share — without asking parents to email zip files at midnight.
A weekly message and media post to your whole co-op community.
Your culture, your voice — recurring updates that keep the hive connected between class days.
Per-student curriculum tracking with a teacher suggestion queue.
Teachers propose items, directors approve, parents check off — everyone stays on the same page.
A shareable co-op calendar that subscribes to Google, Apple, or Outlook.
Families sync once and never miss a class day, holiday, or schedule change.
Families, students, teachers — the whole hive at your fingertips.
Searchable roster with contact info, emergency details, and class assignments. Privacy-respecting by default.
Step Up funds tracked per child, with quarterly deposits and a real-time remaining balance.
Parents see exactly how much funding is left per child. The tracker warns before overspending and generates reimbursement receipts.
Invite teachers, assign them to sections, and give them only the views they need.
Each teacher sees their own classes, students, and attendance — nothing more.
One co-op profile in the Propolis marketplace with Active / Coming Soon / Unlisted status.
Priority placement on Hive Pro so the right families find you first.
Set up your co-op in minutes. Define sections, invite teachers, choose your marketplace status, and open enrollment when you're ready.
Parents apply through the marketplace or join via a magic link. Directors approve and place students in the right sections — or import an existing roster from CSV.
Attendance, announcements to their sections, assignment posting, and curriculum checklists — each teacher sees only the classes they teach.
Send targeted announcements, invoice tuition through Stripe, schedule volunteer shifts, run yearbook photo drives, and post to the Culture Board weekly.
From the parent dashboard, families see schedules, checklists, volunteer hours, invoices, photos, and real-time Step Up scholarship balances.
Subscribe the co-op calendar to Google, Apple, or Outlook. Messages stay threaded. Reports give directors the data they need to lead well.
Propolis — "bee glue" — is the resin honeybees craft from tree buds and sap to seal cracks, defend the hive, and keep the colony healthy. Your co-op deserves the same: a sticky, golden layer that holds everything together so the worker bees can focus on what matters.
Join co-ops already using Propolis to manage enrollment, track scholarships, and keep their hive humming.
