Parchment makes it simple for students, families, and alumni to request the documents they’re looking for, while giving your team the tools to respond quickly and manage requests with confidence. Authorized staff can also access records when they need them without searching through paper files.
From fulfilling transcript requests to mailing printed diplomas, records management is part of your team’s daily work. Parchment helps bring more organization and consistency to how records are captured, stored, and processed, so your team can keep work flowing without extra follow-up.

How it works
While our products can be used à la carte, many charter and independent schools use a combination of solutions for a seamless, efficient experience for staff, families, and students. Here’s how.
Keep records organized and accessible
Move from paper folders to secure digital records. Schools can capture and store documents in a centralized system, making it easier for staff to find what they need and stay organized. Counselors, nurses, and other authorized staff can quickly access the most current records without tracking down files or managing physical storage.
Simplify records requests and fulfillment
Receive, process, and track transcript and records requests from students, alumni, other schools, and third-party requestors. Parchment provides a secure, online experience that is always available, giving your school a consistent way to receive, manage, and fulfill requests without relying on phone calls, emails, or in-person visits.
Deliver credentials with a few clicks
Graduation looks different at every school. Whether your students are on campus or learning remotely, Parchment helps you print and deliver diplomas directly to students, reducing manual handling and shipping costs. Students can also receive digital credentials they can easily share, while having the ability to request replacement diplomas when needed.
