Wright & Percy is the school district's employee benefits provider. Before Benefitfocus, all benefits administration was done by paper, backing up both the district and the carrier.

For enrollment, employees can complete benefit elections at their own pace and are able to compare plans side-by-side. Data and personal information are stored in off-site servers.
