Welcome to our website.

Meet our dedicated team of innovators, educators, managers, consultants, designers, and school site specialists. We invite you to learn more about our products and services, our history and mission, and our proudest accomplishment of all: our people. Most of the dreamers, architects and builders of this success story have been with SI&A since inception.

We are a collaborative corps of hard-working, straight talking, and service-driven individuals. We believe in education. We can help you, your students and their families achieve great things.

We were founded in 2003, and have grown from our origins as the back-office facilitator for most of California’s school districts and county offices of education, into the creator of unparalleled products, most notably The Achievement Initiative, powered by Attention2Attendance® (A2A), a software solution that decreases school absenteeism by as much as 25 percent – and works 100 percent of the time.

Before expanding outside of California, we started as a compliance company dealing with the complex and constantly changing climate of state regulations, economic recession, school funding priorities and politically shifting paradigms.

Today our signature product – The Achievement Initiative – has created a new standard. The Achievement Initiative will improve your attendance numbers, bottom line and, most important, your students’ lives.

New Small School District Solution to Combat Absenteeism

Flyer explaining The Achievement Initiative powered by Attenetion2Attendance - K-12 education attendance management system.

One of the key findings from our statewide attendance data analysis was the disproportionate impact of rising chronic absence rates on small-enrollment districts. I live in a county where all but one district has less than 3,000 students districtwide. The educators who work at these districts are dedicated to kids. They face a unique set of challenges and often wear many hats to accomplish them.

Their accountability requirements are the same as those in larger districts, but there are few hands to get the job done. With so many small school districts asking us for attendance supports, custom tracking and positive communications at their scale, we’ve just launched The Achievement Initiative SMALLS, fueled by Attention2Attendance® —a powerful (easy) technology solution for data and flexibility that DOESN’T ask for more people-power.

Dr. Josh Randall, Assistant Superintendent at Sulphur Springs Union School District, knows all too well the importance of looking at attendance data in a variety of ways, and why working with A2A checks all the boxes for data, efficiency and connecting with families to get at the heart of the matter. He says, “Good attendance data allows for rich conversations.” – See Dr. Randall’s short video clip

As you work to rebound from closures and restore a semblance of normal, our program for small districts fills a fundamental need—access to the best data tool to support attendance improvements with customized data tracking, reporting and tiered interventions.

As always, send an email to AskErica@sia-us.com to learn more.
