The Tech & Learning judges said of Class Composer:

"Class Composer addresses an important school challenge by replacing a cumbersome, subjective class-placement process with a system that combines educator judgment, student data, and algorithmic balancing. Its focused feature set is well matched to the problem, and the addition of historical records and flexible grouping extends its usefulness beyond annual class placement. This unique tool fills an important gap in the edtech market!"

"We founded Class Composer to help elementary schools create classroom environments where teachers can better support the academic, social, and emotional needs of every student," said Mike Cronley, Co-founder and CEO of Class Composer. "Creating class lists is one of the most important decisions schools make each year, yet many still rely on error-prone and time-consuming manual processes."

We're thrilled to have been recognized with a Tech & Learning Award of Excellence: Back to School 2026. To find out more about our winning product, see how Class Composer works.

This award follows our recognition as Classroom Management Solution of the Year in the 2026 EdTech Breakthrough Awards.
