In July 2025, Jonathan Alder Local Schools unveiled “Ask Jonnie”, a new AI-powered chatbot integrated into the district’s website to help families, students, and community members quickly find answers—around the clock and in multiple languages.
Powered by Apptegy’s AlwaysOn Chatbot technology, “Ask Jonnie” draws exclusively from the district’s own web content, ensuring that responses are accurate, up-to-date, and tailored to the school community. The tool reflects campus branding as users navigate from district-level pages to individual school sites, creating a seamless and familiar experience.
Besides enhancing accessibility with support for 30+ languages, “Ask Jonnie” is designed to alleviate staff workloads by handling frequently asked questions—especially after hours and over weekends. District administrators can also tap into built-in analytics to monitor community inquiries, reveal information gaps, and proactively update web content.
