LevelUp for Schools & Counselors

Problems we help address

• Missing assignments and inconsistent homework habits
• Students “trying” with no clear proof of effort
• Low engagement and lack of ownership over schoolwork
• Counselors and case managers needing evidence for MTSS, 504, and IEP meetings

How schools use LevelUp

• Track focus minutes and streaks as a lightweight “effort layer” on top of any curriculum
• Support MTSS, 504s, IEPs, and credit recovery with clear logs of time-on-task
• Run small pilots with one class, one grade level, or targeted intervention groups
• No extra grading workload — LevelUp focuses on effort, not scoring work

Minimal data footprint

• Email and securely hashed password
• In-app activity: focus sessions, XP, streaks, missions
• Optional academic info: GPA entries, course names, transcripts
• No keystrokes, no browsing history, no device surveillance

FERPA & COPPA stance

• Students own their academic data inside LevelUp
• Export and deletion supported for school and family requests
• Under-13 use requires school/parent consent under COPPA where applicable
• Designed to support FERPA-friendly use — not as a SIS replacement but as a study/effort layer

Teachers can create classes, share join codes, and plug LevelUp into existing workflows in minutes. LevelUp tracks focus minutes and streaks; you keep your curriculum and grading.

• Class creation and join codes
• Assignment bundles and question sets tied to rewards
• Focus minutes and session counts per class
• Exportable summaries for conferences and grade meetings

Key teacher tools

• Class XP Map — which classes are putting in the most time
• Assignment Overview — which tasks are getting done
• Bundle Lab — reusable question bundles and practice sets
• Raid Reports — boss/raid participation by student
• Focus Minutes Dashboard — week-over-week effort trends

LevelUp gives counselors and support staff a simple view of “trying vs. not trying.” Instead of guessing, you see streaks, focus minutes, and weekly effort alongside GPA trends.

• Weekly effort summaries and streak health
• Focus minutes per week and per subject
• GPA trends and course-level movement
• Assignment attempts and practice reps (where available)

Use cases

• MTSS tier documentation and intervention planning
• 504/IEP meetings: evidence of effort and routines
• Executive function coaching: show students their own week and build better rhythms
• Credit recovery and alternative programs: track whether students are putting in the hours

Proof of Grind takes focus minutes, streaks, mastery, and GPA arcs and turns them into a one-page story of a student's effort.

What the report can include

• Total focus minutes and sessions
• Streak length and consistency patterns
• Subject mastery snapshots and practice reps
• GPA arc over time (where data is provided)
• Achievements, missions, and key wins

Where it's used

• Parent-teacher conferences and counselor meetings
• 504/IEP documentation and goal reviews
• Scholarship, readiness, and talent programs
• Letters of recommendation and student self-advocacy

LevelUp can start with a single school or program, then scale. We work alongside your existing SIS/LMS rather than replacing them.

• School-wide rosters and teacher access controls
• District-level analytics on focus minutes and streaks
• Per-school comparisons and cohort-level trends
• Support for teacher onboarding and launch playbooks

Pilot approach

• No SIS integration required to pilot
• Start with 1–2 schools, programs, or intervention teams
• Measure engagement, missed work, and student feedback
• Option to layer in deeper data connections later

LevelUp is a study companion — not a spying tool. It tracks focus sessions and routines, not browsing history or personal messages.

• Students start a focus timer when they sit down to work and earn XP for minutes spent on-task
• Parents and educators can use Proof of Grind to see patterns over weeks, not just a single grade
• No keystroke logging, no camera/microphone monitoring, no social feed scraping

How parents can support

• Encourage using LevelUp during homework blocks
• Ask students to share their streaks and focus minutes
• Bring Proof of Grind reports to conferences or support meetings to show effort

• Purpose: engagement and accountability layer for studying and homework
• Audience: middle school, high school, and early college students
• Key features: focus timer, streaks, squads, GPA tools, Proof of Grind
• Data collected: account basics, focus sessions, XP/streaks, optional GPA/course data
• Data protections: HTTPS encryption, restricted access, export & deletion on request
