After-school program management software

Everything your school needs to run programs well

Popsicle is built around the way school programs actually work — from program setup and parent registration to payment tracking, rosters, and parent communication.

Program Management

Create any program your school runs

After-school clubs, summer camps, enrichment classes, seasonal programs — set them all up with a consistent structure. Define dates, grade ranges, capacity limits, pricing, and enrollment rules once. Clone them for next semester in seconds.

  • After-school, camp, enrichment, and seasonal program types
  • Grade eligibility and capacity limits
  • Waitlist management when programs fill up
  • Clone programs for next term
