Digital technology transforms engagement across every aspect of education. Students of all age levels understand and expect integrated technologies to be part of their learning experiences, just as they are in their lives outside school. The role of digital engagement technology is a change that we saw coming and helped advance through our innovation across learning communities.
The next generation of in-school digital engagement is here
From student-focused retail shops to on-the-go food options, we will keep your learning community fueled and moving forward with K12 convenience food services Our partnership with UPshow delivers an affordable way for schools to go green, replacing paper signage with digital communication. Beyond that, UPshow provides digital engagement, entertainment and education in a student-friendly format – these tools foster social connection (trivia and announcements!) and help students order their food faster, giving them maximum time with friends.
App-Enabled Remote Communication
Imagine a future in which you could sell school-branded apparel and school supplies with a portion of proceeds supporting your learning community, but without supply chain or inventory woes for the district. With Sodexo partnering to operate your district-branded stores, we can do just that. Our menu and nutrition app, Nutrislice, makes it easy for students of all ages — and their families — to engage with your food programs. With Nutrislice, users can check menus, ingredients and food allergens for added convenience and safety. Communication apps enable enhanced social outreach. Students and parents can complete surveys or provide immediate feedback, helping us fine-tune your programs in real time.
Website Solutions
Keep students and parents informed with a comprehensive website that’s uniquely tailored to your district and features information about menus, student well-being, events and more. The firewall-protected site also serves as a secure portal for parents and students to contact your nutrition team and a safe way to make online payments. The site is optimized for both desktop and mobile viewing.
Text Messages
Texting is one of the most effective ways to communicate with students and parents. MyDtxt is Sodexo’s proprietary texting tool for enhancing engagement. Students and parents opt in to receive information and exclusive offers via text, such as discounts, daily specials, promotional alerts and timely notifications about school events. With MyDtxt, students and parents can stay informed and provide instant feedback.

Analytics
Careful analysis of student trends and habits enables a data-driven approach to your nutrition program.
