The challenge

Yes Prep Public Schools were looking for a staffing solution that could address operational pain points:

  • Staffing gaps across multiple campuses, not just for PTO but for ongoing vacancies
  • A need for qualified, adaptable educators who could maintain learning continuity
  • Network-wide visibility into coverage and budget data to make daily decisions—something previous vendors couldn’t provide

Customized approach

We worked closely with Yes Prep to design a solution that matched their needs:

  • Early planning: We outlined a calendar of Spring/Summer planning sessions before the 23–24 school year to align on goals.
  • Technology upgrades:
    • Enhanced Scoot2Book app for campus-level fill rate visibility
    • Built Power BI dashboards for fill rates, leave types, and budget tracking
  • Consistent communication:
    • Biweekly HQ meetings
    • Setup with our free booking management app, Scoot2Book
    • Designated Scoot Education Consultant for each campus
    • Attended district-wide PD day for introductions and app demos
  • Feedback loop: Yes Prep’s lead Scoot Consultant reports on educator and campus feedback to keep everyone aligned on what outcomes they want to achieve.

Staffing implementation

In 23–24, Scoot provided day-to-day coverage for lead teachers, Special Education roles, TAs, and operational support. After an exceptional first year, Yes Prep expanded the partnership in 24–25 to include half of their long-term placements.


Results

  • Fill rates:
    • 24–25 SY (Aug–Jan): 98.92% overall
      • Total 4,242 requests filled
    • December peaked at 99.80%
  • Operational wins:
    • Real-time data helped Yes Prep control budgets and reallocate resources
    • Reduced invoicing issues through proactive monitoring
  • Positive feedback:
    • Strong campus relationships and HQ alignment
    • Scoot’s outcomes led to many Yes Prep campuses requesting Scoot to be their source of all long-term placements
