About Frontline Special Education
Frontline's special education module is what many districts use as their system of record for generating IEP documents and submitting state reports. It is typically deployed and configured at the district level, and teachers interact with it primarily to draft and finalize IEP documents.
Best for: Districts that need a state-reporting-compliant IEP document system and the central administration to manage it.
Pricing: District enterprise contracts; pricing not publicly listed. Individual teachers do not purchase directly.

Which should you pick?
Frontline is a system of record; IEP Casemate is a system of work. If your district mandates Frontline for final IEP documents and state reporting, you still need something for the daily scheduling, data collection, and reporting that Frontline isn't optimized for — that's where IEP Casemate fits alongside it rather than replacing it.
