In a landmark partnership, the State of Idaho selected SchoolPulse as a unified suicide prevention, safety, and student support system. This statewide adoption underscores our system’s effectiveness, scalability, and trusted role in building safer, healthier school communities across an entire region.

“Over the past year, the Idaho Department of Education has partnered with SchoolPulse to strengthen student wellness and expand suicide prevention efforts across our state. This partnership has been transformative. In just twelve months, SchoolPulse has been implemented in more than 240 of Idaho’s 330 secondary schools—providing proactive wellness education, early intervention, and real-time support for thousands of students and parents. SchoolPulse delivers high-value, low-lift solutions that make it easier for administrators and counselors to support student well-being. We’re proud of what this partnership has achieved and the lasting positive impact it continues to make across Idaho.”

“As the Executive Director of the Idaho Association of School Administrators, I am continually evaluating programs that claim to support student wellness. Few deliver on that promise—SchoolPulse does. Its statewide growth over the past year reflects one simple reality: schools trust it because it works. In just one year, it has become one of the most impactful student-support partnerships in our state’s history. SchoolPulse provides proactive outreach, real-time support, and a practical framework schools can adopt without added staffing or cost burdens. At scale, it has improved resilience, strengthened school-family connection, and helped prevent crisis before it occurs. This is the kind of strategic, results-driven solution that every state should be considering.”

“SchoolPulse has bridged a gap between students and school counselors by allowing students to anonymously check in with your online team. We appreciate the feedback on the professional dashboard side which allows us to gain a truer vision of our students’ well-being. The staff is able to encourage students to use the SchoolPulse counselors when we are not available. SchoolPulse is providing dialogue with students and their mental health awareness. This program is every school counselor’s friend! Thanks for being a part of our journey to providing support for our kids’ mental health needs. I believe that this is the best program…in the world. We are completely loving SchoolPulse!!!”

“What makes SchoolPulse different is that it reaches students before a crisis begins. It creates consistent connection, education, and encouragement for every student, every week. Through positive messages, live support, and activities that build emotional strength and resilience, SchoolPulse helps us promote wellness, prevent crisis, and support student success in a proactive and meaningful way.”

“Last summer we were introduced to SchoolPulse.  When reviewing their services, they demonstrated that they can provide support in a way which preserves the privacy and dignity of those in need.  We decided to take a chance and gave them a try.

During the course of the school year, SchoolPulse had 18,000 positive interactions with students and parents in our secondary schools. This included students communicating suicidal ideation, sexual abuse, and other significant traumatic events and ongoing concerns.  The students communicating through this platform are now receiving the support they need.  These interactions are from students who likely would have never visited the counseling office.  Even if the students were willing to seek help from our counselors, there is no way our counseling team could have addressed the additional 18,000 student concerns on top of their already overwhelming schedule to address student needs. These students did not want the stigma of being “the kid needing services” on them.  They did not want their peers to tease/bully them about needing to visit a counselor. They did not feel they had a trusted adult or significant other to confide in.  These interactions would have never taken place if SchoolPulse was not accessible to our students.

The online access platform of SchoolPulse allows students to scan a QR code in confidence with their cell phone and engage in anonymous texting interactions where it is comfortable for students when they are in need (7 Days a week), without making an appointment, and receive help from trained professionals who guide and support them during their struggles. The data we receive from them has shown that when our students interact with their team, they  are able to raise their level of well being by 50% through these positive and encouraging interactions.

SchoolPulse is a great source of support which we believe has significantly contributed to improving the mental health and well being of students in need.”

“As Washington County School District superintendent I am always looking for ways to help us be more effective and efficient in ensuring high levels of learning for all students.  Today’s students have so many things to distract and interfere with learning, and life in general. SchoolPulse is a very affordable Tier I & Tier III intervention and support for our students and staff.  It is organized and operated by professionals, and structured to build intrinsic motivation, and awareness, which is inclined to foster skills and routines that build resilience in our students.  Additionally, it provides a real-time picture and pulse regarding student and school wide morale and atmosphere. It works very well with the PBIS program, and for its minimal cost is well worth the investment.”
