Who We Are

Stephen Shapiro, Founder

Stephen's graduate school thesis was titled, "What I wish I had as a student." 24 years later, Stephen is still providing communication solutions to schools.

SchoolBlocks is dedicated to K-12 institutions creating stronger, deeper, and safer, community relationships. We bring this to life through a unity of design, technology, and usability that comprehends the actual human capacity of K-12 school systems. The result is a digital communications ecosystem that is livelier and more relevant to the moment. Inviting exploration it encourages meaningful engagement.


Our Mission: Setting New Standards

Our mission is simple: Enable K-12 institutions to elevate their digital engagement through technical innovation, design excellence, and world-class support.


About Us: Anything but ordinary

Founded in 2014, SchoolBlocks is a privately owned company headquartered in Carbondale, Colorado. Founder and President, Stephen Shapiro, a pioneer in the field of educational technology since 2000, began his Ed Tech journey with his Colorado University graduate thesis "What I Wish I Had as a Student." SchoolBlocks is the definitive answer to that wish. Stephen's first project was the groundbreaking first-mover K-12 communication platform, SchoolFusion which was acquired by Blackboard (now Anthology).
