What Orbit Will Offer

Rooms & periods, one live board

Every teacher, room, and class period on a single board the whole campus can see in real time.Drag an assignment and Orbit catches the double-booking before two classes land in the same room.

The cover scramble, handled

A teacher calls out and there's no phone tree, no "who can take third period?" group text.Orbit offers the open period to qualified faculty and subs, takes the first yes, and books it — the whole scramble collapses into one quiet notification.

Every campus, one view

Buildings, departments, and campuses on one live board.See where staffing is thin, where a room sits empty, and where coverage is solid — without chasing five different schedules.
