Rural school districts in Texas run leaner than most. A single secretary or curriculum director often handles workflows that larger districts split across an entire department. So when a process like a Professional Development Request moves through a building, the friction lands hard: a form gets walked from a teacher to a principal, sits on a desk, gets re-keyed somewhere downstream, and a week later somebody is asking where the approval went.
Flow Forms is partnering with the Texas Rural Education Association to do something about that.
