Red Rover provides a modern absence management solution purpose-built for K–12 school districts. Designed to address the unique challenges of substitute teacher management, its intuitive software streamlines scheduling, supports substitute engagement, and helps ensure instructional continuity across schools nationwide. Since launch, more than 1,300 districts have adopted Red Rover.
At the core is proprietary schedule optimization technology that automatically fills every absence based on substitute availability — including support staff and partial schedules. When an absence is entered, Red Rover takes over, instantly texting qualified substitutes without the need for manual processes or robocalls.
Through the free mobile app, substitutes can manage their work on the go — set availability, review upcoming jobs, and accept assignments with a tap. The system fills an average of 29,000 daily absences in about six minutes.
Today, Red Rover is among the fastest-growing substitute management solutions in K–12. Focused on innovation guided by district feedback, it avoids the acquisition-and-integration model that has long frustrated schools. The result is a unified, best-in-class product backed by responsive support, helping districts modernize workforce management with confidence. For these reasons and more, Red Rover earned a Cool Tool Award (finalist) honor for “Best Administrative Solution” as part of The EdTech Awards 2025 from EdTech Digest. Learn more.
