Helping school communities keep student success and wellness at the top of mind.
Wavely is a wellness support tool that equips students with a comfortable way to access school support staff and verified support resources right at their fingertips.
Your community matters to us.
The COVID-19 pandemic has made it clear that thousands of students' mental health needs are going unnoticed. This problem has existed for years in education but has recently become a reality at the forefront of school leaders' minds. After extensive conversations with school leaders about this concern, we identified that students needed a comfortable way to access school support staff and verified support resources while maintaining proper safeguards and boundaries. In other words, they need a more straightforward way to find the help they need when they need it.
Another problem evident in education is the school system's lack of innovation in prioritizing student mental health and wellness. This discovery is especially interesting when research shows us that mental health directly affects academic performance, retainment, and overall desire for learning in the classroom. Students deserve to be part of a school community that ensures their needs are heard and supported, and we want to help you become a school that sets the example for others. At Wavely, we believe this positive shift in the student experience will result in a higher attendance rate, graduation rate, and likelihood of college placement.
Closing July 1! Join the Fall Pilot Cohort
Wavely is a concept that was created as a direct result of the COVID-19 pandemic. Last school year, we worked with a small group of schools to validate the need for our technology in education, and guess what? It worked! Now, we are moving into phase two of testing this coming school year with a larger number of schools. For $2 per student, your school can join our fall pilot program, set the example for other schools in your community, be recognized as a founding partner at Wavely.
On top of that, you get to work directly with our team to help improve our technology and receive a massive discount on our annual school plan if you choose to keep working with us. We are looking for proactive school partners that value student wellness and believe in setting an example for others. If this sounds like your school community, schedule a call with us to inquire about becoming an exclusive pilot site this fall. We have a bright vision at Wavely, and we hope you can be part of it.

School Safeguards
Authentication
Imported students and staff receive an email that includes a unique authorization code and an access code assigned to their student or employee ID. This information, along with a secure password, is required to activate their profile to eliminate unauthorized access.
Data Encryption
All user data passing through Wavely on both its mobile and online interface is encrypted which means that all user data and activity is converted into complex code that ensures its contents cannot be understood, intercepted, or collected by anyone or at any time.
Parental Consent
For any minor to use Wavely, the parent or guardian of the minor is required to sign our technology consent form that gives the minor authorized permission to use the app. It's the responsibility of the school to distribute and maintain a record of these signed forms.
User Privacy
We comply with all HIPAA compliance standards meaning that we do not collect or have access to personally identifiable information (PII) and do not not sell user data to third parties. We also comply with all FERPA standards. Only authorized admins have access to certain user information.
Displayed on all conversation screens are safety disclaimers that inform students of what to do if in an emergency situation. There is also a safety disclaimer that appears when a student attempts to privately message a school counselor when they're unavailable.
Safety Disclaimers
Support Resources
Students are unable to privately message their school counselor when their chat availability is turned off. If a student attempts to privately message their school counselor when unavailable, a safety disclaimer appears that redirects them to 24/7 resources in the app.
This is a team effort.
We always have your back.
Using the requested student information from your Student Information System (SIS), you will complete our onboarding checklist with an assigned account manager at Wavely. We walk you through the entire setup process from beginning to end, and your account manager will be there to assist you every step of the way.
We make onboarding easy.
One of the most effective ways to ensure students properly authenticate and set up their Wavely profile is by scheduling a "launch week". Your administration simply assigns each grade level to a specific day on this "launch week" where students watch a two-minute setup video during their advisory period or study hall that will walk them through the account setup process. This video will highlight the purpose and importance of the Wavely platform as well.
We keep roll-out simple.
With the help of your account manager, we will activate your Wavely network and help you onboard your students, staff, and resources within minutes. When a student or staff member is added to your Wavely network, they will receive an automated welcome email with unique login credentials associated with their student or employee ID. This information will be used when students and staff authenticate their Wavely profile during your scheduled launch week.
Tailor us to your needs.
ANCHOR METHOD
STREAMLINE METHOD
The "Anchor Method" is our recommended model for most school structures as it guarantees every student has access to an assigned school counselor and limits access to other support staff. This means they need an approved referral request for access.
The "Streamline Method" is a more simplistic model that grants students access to all staff members within your office of student services without limitations. This means that students do not need a referral request to access other support staff.
