<p class="MsoNormal">Good morning!<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">As many of you are aware, Frontline has been working to implement multifactor authentication for users of the ProgressBook Suite. They are now in the process of rolling out Frontline Platform as a way to address this. Below you will see
a high-level overview of “Frontline Platform,” and how MVECA will work with you to get your district migrated. Your local end-users are soon going to be receiving information on this upgrade, so we wanted district technology staff to get a jump on this in
case you receive any queries. Please don’t hesitate to let us know if you have any immediate questions after reviewing the information below.<o:p></o:p></p>
