K-12 special education management is about more than just compliance, although that is a very real concern for most school administrators. Special education (SPED) management is also about supporting educators, students, and families with tools that really work. Unfortunately, many schools face ongoing issues with their current SPED systems, including unexpected costs, unwieldy interfaces, poor tech support, and compliance risks.

Lumen Touch’s Bright SPED is designed to solve these challenges head-on, offering an all-in-one special-needs management solution that’s intuitive, compliant, and budget-conscious.

Challenge #1: “We need a complete and cost-effective SPED solution.”

Many SPED systems come with hidden costs, where extra is charged for essential features like translations, SIS integrations, and workflows. Other systems simply don’t include all the tools needed to manage the entire SPED program, forcing schools to piece together multiple systems.

Bright SPED delivers an all-inclusive product with no extra fees. And no surprises!

• Supports 504, evaluation, IEP, and reporting – all in one system
• Includes translations in over 100 languages at no cost
• Offers easy-to-follow workflows and processes
• Seamlessly integrates with SIS systems and enables SSO through SchoolDay
• Enables data to be entered once and applied across the entire student plan

Challenge #2: “We’re struggling with state audits, losing time and funding as a result.”

When SPED systems fail to lock down compliance workflows, districts can fall out of alignment with state requirements, putting funding at risk and overwhelming educators with rework.

Bright SPED is built for compliance, with a proven 100% pass rate on state audits.

• Developed in collaboration with state agencies to meet evolving requirements
• Includes key workflows, automated alerts, and locked processes to ensure nothing is missed
• Enables admin oversight, with an easy approval system for reviewing and revising documentation
• Provides a built-in goal bank to help educators write complete, personalized, and compliant goals

Challenge #3: “Our current system is hard to use and hard to get support for.”

Teachers shouldn’t have to waste time trying to learn confusing technology. And they should not have to wait for hours or days to obtain tech support. Unfortunately, many software solutions fall short, offering poor user experience and outsourced support with added fees.

Bright SPED is simple, intuitive, and supported by a local, dedicated team.

• Clean, role-based dashboards that guide users through daily tasks
• Clearly defined processes that help educators stay on track
• Goal bank and multilingual document translations to make communication with families seamless
• Supported by Lumen Touch’s in-house team based in Missouri and Kansas – no third-party support required
• Free monthly webinars and ongoing training to keep your team up to speed

Designed for Real-World Use

Bright SPED isn’t just another software product. It’s a true partner in support of SPED educators and administrators. With seamless SIS integration and widespread use in neighboring districts, student and staff transitions are smoother than ever. Whether a teacher is new to a district or a student is transferring from one school to another, Bright SPED ensures consistency and continuity.
