What We Do
About Student & Fiscal Support
In September 2023, ESD 112 partnered with ESD 105 and ESD 171 to establish the Greater Columbia River Information Service Center (GCRISC). This collaborative aims to streamline software support for school districts, drawing on deep expertise in payroll/HR, fiscal, and student data functions within Skyward SMS 2.0 and Skyward Qmlativ.
Services
The Greater Columbia River ISC operates three specialized support teams, providing dedicated assistance and training to school districts across the region. Our support is flexible and responsive, with training available in multiple formats—virtual, in-person, hybrid, and recorded sessions—to suit each district’s needs. Districts can reach our teams by email for tailored, attentive support, with our analysts working closely to address issues and facilitate smooth operations
