Your school's front office just got its day back.

RTN's AI Receptionist answers every parent call instantly — in the languages your community speaks, 24/7/365 — so your staff can focus on the students in the room.

An empty school front office at dawn — a single phone on a white reception desk, quiet, before the day begins.
  • Purpose-built for K-12
  • FERPA-aware
  • Multilingual Capable
  • 24/7/365

The morning your front office dreads.

An empty school parking lot before dawn, fresh snow on the ground, a single yellow school bus parked alone with one warm window glowing in the building behind it.
5:30 AM

The snow-day call.

One closure announcement triggers 400–600% more inbound calls than a normal morning. Every parent, vendor, and local reporter asks the same question at the same time.

A reception desk inside a school front office at morning, a stack of manila folders on the desk beside a silent office phone, long shadows cast by sunlight.
8:00 AM

Enrollment week.

80+ simultaneous callers. One secretary. Every lost call is a lost family.

A closed wooden office door inside a school hallway in the afternoon, an empty wooden chair beside the door, sunlight slanting across a pale oak floor.
3:45 PM

A student in crisis.

The counselor is in a meeting. The call goes to voicemail. That can't happen.

Questions schools ask.

Do we need a new phone number?

No. Your AI Receptionist works with your existing numbers.

What happens after the 30-day pilot?

You choose. Continue at $199/month per attendant or cancel — we won't charge a card we don't have.

What languages does it speak?

English and Spanish are included. Additional languages are available as an add-on.

Is this FERPA-aware?

Yes. Call logging and data handling are built to respect FERPA.

Can we turn it off?

Yes, any time. It's your phone line — you stay in control.

How fast can we launch?

Most districts are live in under a week.

What about spam calls and telemarketers?

Filtered automatically — they never reach your office.

Who sees the call transcripts?

Only staff you designate. Transcripts log to a secure portal, not public inboxes.
