Early results from the implementation show a significant reduction in administrative tasks, increased one-on-one student interaction, strong adoption rates across grade levels, and enhanced assessment efficiency. Curt Allen, CEO of Agilix Labs, praises NorthStar Academy’s forward-thinking approach to education technology, saying their commitment to excellence aligns with Agilix Labs’ mission.
The partnership includes full integration of BusyBee across all NorthStar Academy programs, customized AI training for faculty and staff, ongoing support and optimization, and regular performance analytics and insights.
