Newsletter - Clever

Delivered to your inbox

Recommendations from experts

Clever is connected to some of the top leaders in this industry – K12 SIX, CoSN, SETDA – but there is no one newsletter that covers insights from them all… until now. Gain access to exclusive insights from top cybersecurity experts in education. Learn best practices and innovative strategies to safeguard your students’ and staff’s data.

News, trends, and innovations

Cybersecurity trends (and risks) move quickly and it’s hard to keep up. Stay updated on the latest tech trends and innovations in cybersecurity. Discover new tools and technologies that can bolster your school’s defenses.

Actionable tips and tools

Receive practical tips and tools to enhance your school’s cybersecurity posture. Our newsletter offers step-by-step guides, checklists, and resources tailored for K-12 environments.

Giving students the Clever Badge frees up a lot of time. It also enables the teachers to spend time on other things rather than logging in students.

Kate Mackintosh

STEAM Specialist & Digital Technologies Leader

“At scale, building your own solution isn’t sustainable. The real value comes from avoiding endless troubleshooting and firefighting, so your team can focus on what matters most—your product.”

Dominic Via

VP of Sales at Clever

Clever Complete will be a game-changer for how we work with schools. The solution gives us the flexibility to support different school systems and provide a consistent user experience, without the engineering and support headaches.

Ian Lotinsky

CTO, Great Minds

“Handling sensitive student information requires robust security measures. Effective identity and access management are crucial to protect the entire school community’s data, and align with our responsibility to ensure a safe digital environment for our users. We’re thrilled to have Clever as a partner in that endeavor.”

Mihran Vardanyan

Chief AI Officer, Happy Numbers

About one in four children in America have used Prodigy. This growth so far wasn’t because we sold to districts. It was because teachers loved the fact it was both zero cost and that it motivated their students. Now, rostering with Clever has enabled us to deepen our relationships and trust at a district level.

Cara Yarzab

Director of Product, Prodigy

When we onboard new schools, we often find security setups that are nowhere near robust. One school had printed usernames and passwords stuck into student planners… Unfortunately, that’s more the norm than the exception.

Roger Nixon

former IT Director, River Learning Trust

Usage data tells you what’s being used—but only teachers can tell you why. Pair their insight with your analytics to make smarter, people-driven edtech decisions.

Mark Racine

Former CIO, Boston Public Schools

I want AI in the classroom to reflect how I teach, so students get an on-demand version of Mr. Araujo, not just a generic tool. That’s how we preserve real teaching.

Daniel Araujo

Elementary Principal in Walnut Creek, CA

“With Clever and Layers managing rostering and SSO behind the scenes, we’ve eliminated the technical burden for educators—giving them back valuable time to focus on what truly matters: their students’ learning journey.”

Matheus Ishimoto

Partner Operations Manager, Khan Academy

“The classroom experience was seamless for both students and teachers. Accessing Khan Academy felt completely natural—everything was integrated into the school portal they already used daily, with no extra steps or new systems to learn.”

Marcelo Farias

Product Manager, Layers
