About the client

Laurel Springs School is an accredited K-12 online school serving students across all 50 U.S. states and more than 100 countries. With more than 4,500 graduates, the school delivers online education at a global scale.

Challenge

Demand for online K-12 education increased during the global pandemic as more students and families looked for digital learning options. Laurel Springs School needed a commerce solution that could improve its digital experience and support online course enrollment. Its legacy systems could not keep pace with its evolving goals. The school needed a faster, more flexible way for families to browse, purchase, and enroll in courses online.

Solution

Laurel Springs School partnered with XCentium to deliver the first Sitecore OrderCloud implementation. The project was completed in six weeks, making it the fastest commerce implementation delivered on Sitecore.

XCentium connected Sitecore OrderCloud with NetSuite, Genius, and CyberSource. These integrations supported commerce, learning management, and payment processing within a connected digital experience.

The solution also gave Laurel Springs School a composable digital experience platform. Students and families could browse and purchase courses online, while the school gained a more flexible foundation for future digital needs.

Outcomes

Laurel Springs School brought a new commerce experience to market quickly and became the first organization to launch on Sitecore OrderCloud. The platform supported direct course purchasing and helped improve the online enrollment journey for students and families.

The solution also enabled targeted course recommendations and customized content. Marketing teams gained tools to manage course content and digital campaigns, while the composable architecture gave Laurel Springs School more flexibility in choosing its technology roadmap.
