## SchoolMint Hero Reviews
  ### 1. Hero helps with all students

**Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Teresa C. | Teacher, Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** June 09, 2020

**What do you like best about SchoolMint Hero?**

I like being able to track students who aren't even on my roster. I love the ease of rewarding students.
The app is handy for input from a cell phone.

**What do you dislike about SchoolMint Hero?**

I like that there's a place for photos, but the thumbnails are too small to see clearly, it's not helpful at all.
The app is not particularly handy for students to have on their own phones. It's slow when I need to quickly look someone up.
We have has ENORMOUS problems with the printers. They have proved to be a great expense which is usually not working.

**Recommendations to others considering SchoolMint Hero:**

I like this product. When we first began using Hero, teachers and admin were able to meet with company reps to make sure this product did what we needed it to do. I appreciated being listened to. There is a lot you can do with Hero, I highly recommend it.

**What problems is SchoolMint Hero solving and how is that benefiting you?**

We used it for a long time for lock-out during tardy periods. Students all know what it means to have a "hero pass."
It is useful then, to check up on students who are not in class to make sure they have gotten passes.

It has also been a quick way to reward students, even if they aren't on your roster. Anyone can see their reward points and work with that.

I like to also be able to find students quickly if they are in someone else's class.

  ### 2. Best tool for Classroom Management

**Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Trisha S. | Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** June 24, 2020

**What do you like best about SchoolMint Hero?**

Its interface is very user friendly and easy to use. It is very helpful to engage the students is activities. It gives the ability to parents to check their children in the classroom.

**What do you dislike about SchoolMint Hero?**

Sometimes it not work properly on the phone. It is a little bit expansive than the other alternatives. It improves the scanner function sometimes is not work well.

**Recommendations to others considering SchoolMint Hero:**

Its customer support is very good. It provides constant updates to improve functionality. It is the best tool for managing student behavior.

**What problems is SchoolMint Hero solving and how is that benefiting you?**

It is the best software for managing school activities. It is very helpful in tracking student tardies. It helps improve the behavior of students in the school.

  ### 3. Valley Hero

**Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Verified User in Education Management | Enterprise (> 1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** December 12, 2018

**What do you like best about SchoolMint Hero?**

I like the way you can focus on the positive behaviors in your classroom instead of negative ones. It rewards students for doing the "right thing". Before hero I often focus on the students that where doing the "wrong behaviors" Now with hero its turn the focus of them onto the students that do the right thing all the time and in-turn students that use to get the focus now have to do the opposite behavior "right thing" to get the attention they are wanting.

**What do you dislike about SchoolMint Hero?**

Now that hero has changed a few things that teachers where asking for on the website it has been great, for example you were only able to give one point for one behavior now you can select multiple behaviors at once that students are doing.

**Recommendations to others considering SchoolMint Hero:**

It rewards students that are doing the right thing all the time that we often overlook because they always do when students see other students getting points for doing the right thing it prompts them to do it too.

**What problems is SchoolMint Hero solving and how is that benefiting you?**

Students behavior in the classroom has improved as well as getting to class on time. Students want the points so they can get items for the hero store, like game tickets, prom tickets, parking spot, food, snacks, movie tickets just to name a few.

  ### 4. Great behavior tracking and reward tool when well-integrated into a schoolwide PBIS program

**Rating:** 4.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Verified User in Primary/Secondary Education | Enterprise (> 1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** May 22, 2020

**What do you like best about SchoolMint Hero?**

Hero can be used to reward, and thus, reinforce, positive student behaviors. The user can choose from a number of predefined behaviors (I assume these are chosen by school leaders when setting up the school-wide account) and grant the student points to both track and reward the behavior(s). 

Hero can also be used to track infractions (tardiness, dress code violations, etc.) by choosing from a set of predefined behaviors. When these behaviors are tracked, points are deducted from the student's "account."  At my school, students can use their points to "purchase" items from our school store, and behavior tracking is integrated into our PBIS program.

**What do you dislike about SchoolMint Hero?**

The user is only able to choose from a predefined set of behaviors to reward or track infractions. I understand the need to track a uniform set of behaviors across the school (perhaps those that the school would especially like to reinforce and/or reduce), but it would be great if users could add a specific behavior to track on-the-fly in an "other" field. I am not sure if the Hero app offers this flexibility after the school account has been created.

**Recommendations to others considering SchoolMint Hero:**

Great tool for on-the-fly behavior tracking and reward. When integrated with a schoolwide positive behavior reinforcement program, this is a great way to encourage student self-monitoring of behavior.

**What problems is SchoolMint Hero solving and how is that benefiting you?**

Students are able to buy-in to the schoolwide culture through our PBIS program. Their positive behaviors can be discreetly rewarded and negative behaviors can be discreetly corrected and redirected. By providing incentives to reward positive behaviors and correct undesired behaviors, students develop the intrinsic motivation to self-monitor.

  ### 5. Love it! 

**Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Verified User in Primary/Secondary Education | Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** December 12, 2018

**What do you like best about SchoolMint Hero?**

I love that this is something I have been doing all my years teaching and now it's easier and school wide instead of just me doing it alone. This program has made it so much easier to give students positive reinforcement. It's all tracked on the computer and I can just put the tickets up on the screen as the students walk in. They love it. 


**What do you dislike about SchoolMint Hero?**

I dislike how the app for the phone is not really that great. It's slow and the scanner doesn't work. 


**Recommendations to others considering SchoolMint Hero:**

Love this! Totally recommend it! 

**What problems is SchoolMint Hero solving and how is that benefiting you?**

The students are coming to class on time, with their ID present and are eager to follow classroom expectations so they can receive points. 

  ### 6. HERO is Great!!!

**Rating:** 4.5/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Verified User in Education Management | Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** December 12, 2018

**What do you like best about SchoolMint Hero?**

The ability to track both positive and negative behaviors. I also like the fact that students are able to see how many points they have accumulated as well as what positive and negative behaviors have been tracked for them. 

**What do you dislike about SchoolMint Hero?**

I wish there was a way that teachers could reset students' passwords. The biggest issue we are having is students remembering their passwords. We have had to revoke so many keys because our students are not allowed access to email with their school email accounts so when they forget their password, the only option is to have it sent to their email which they have no access. Maybe if there was another way to reset their password, like maybe them answering some security questions, would be very helpful.

**Recommendations to others considering SchoolMint Hero:**

None at this time

**What problems is SchoolMint Hero solving and how is that benefiting you?**

There are no business problems to solve. We are using Hero for school issues.

  ### 7. Great PBIS Tool

**Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Adam J. | Principal, Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** December 12, 2018

**What do you like best about SchoolMint Hero?**

I love the fact that our students have the ability to track their own points, and can hold our teachers accountable for the point delivery that we have set up. 

**What do you dislike about SchoolMint Hero?**

I do dislike the fact that I have to sync my printer each time I open the app. 

**What problems is SchoolMint Hero solving and how is that benefiting you?**

We are seeing an increase in positive behavior from our students, and a decrease in 1st hour tardies.

  ### 8. Great Program

**Rating:** 4.5/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Brooke T. | Teacher, Enterprise (> 1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** December 12, 2018

**What do you like best about SchoolMint Hero?**

I like that hero is user friendly and helps organize and compile your data.  I like the positive aspects of hero as well.

**What do you dislike about SchoolMint Hero?**

There isn't much i do not like about hero.  It does have to be a group effort for the school.  All faculty and staff has to use hero for it to be effective.

**What problems is SchoolMint Hero solving and how is that benefiting you?**

I am not on the business side of hero.  

  ### 9. Awesome Program!

**Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Nicole D. | Secretary, Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** December 12, 2018

**What do you like best about SchoolMint Hero?**

I really like how you can track each students tardies every day and it automatically assigns consequences.

**What do you dislike about SchoolMint Hero?**

I don't like that we can't have two groups of students up at a time. We have certain students on modified plans that we have to change for every consequence.

**Recommendations to others considering SchoolMint Hero:**

I would definitely recommend this program to any school who wants to use technology more to track tardies as well as positive behaviors. 

**What problems is SchoolMint Hero solving and how is that benefiting you?**

It saves a lot of time having to write passes. 

  ### 10. amazing way to encourage great behavior in the classroom

  ### 11. Heroes Succeed

**Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Carol U. | Kindergarten Teacher, Education Management, Enterprise (> 1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** February 23, 2018

**What do you like best about SchoolMint Hero?**

I like that I am able to monitor the hallway in the morning and give points to students for excellent behavior on the spot with my cell phone.
I like that I can track my kindergarteners all week and given them points on Friday by pulling up my whole class.

**What do you dislike about SchoolMint Hero?**

When I track my students at the end of the week I wish I could easily adjust the number of points I give for each student, so I didn't have to do it individually. I would like to change the number from 5 to 4 or 3.

**Recommendations to others considering SchoolMint Hero:**

Stick with IT!

**What problems is SchoolMint Hero solving and how is that benefiting you?**

I am seeing more students on task and correcting inappropriate behavior when they hear me say that someone else is going to get a hero point. I have also found that I am able to give a point for being responsible by bringing in their homework.

  ### 12. Dramatic Change in School Culture

**Rating:** 4.5/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** James H. | Teacher, Education Management, Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** February 23, 2018

**What do you like best about SchoolMint Hero?**

I really love being able to recognize  all the students for doing what they are supposed to be doing.  I like that the system is school wide and can be tracked.  I like the idea of a Hero store where students can receive some small reward for resisting peer pressure to slack off and/or fail.  I like being able to give points on my phone, iPad, or computer.  

**What do you dislike about SchoolMint Hero?**

The only dislikes I have are related to usability of the software.  They really need to streamline the process for giving points.  There is also a problem with lag time after clicking the button to issue points.  

**What problems is SchoolMint Hero solving and how is that benefiting you?**

Our business problem was that we had a very large number of students who were very deliberately avoiding going to class and arriving late.  Some would literally walk in the other direction when the tardy bell rang.  Others would be on the other side of the quad and start walking very slowly towards class only once the tardy bell had already rang.  This caused multiple interruptions to classroom instruction.  Another problem we had was a sense of disaffection from the 80-90% of the students not causing trouble due to all the attention received by the problem students. 
     Since implementing Hero, I have personally witnessed a dramatic change in the number of tardy students.  I regularly see students actually running to get to class before the bell rings.  I have also seen an increased "buy-in" from the "good" students and the "fence-sitters" as they realize they will be recognized for doing what they are supposed to even when that one or two are having a melt down.  

  ### 13. Hero is really quick and easy to use. 

**Rating:** 4.5/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Emily R. | Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** December 12, 2018

**What do you like best about SchoolMint Hero?**

I like tracking the kids behavior, and seeing them take responsibility for their actions through the hero program.

**What do you dislike about SchoolMint Hero?**

I dislike the mobile app because I can’t access all of my classes like I can on the computer. 

**What problems is SchoolMint Hero solving and how is that benefiting you?**

It keeps the kids in check. 

  ### 14. This is awesome!

**Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Brandi G. | Business Ed Teacher, AICE Business Studies, Accounting, Education Management, Enterprise (> 1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** February 21, 2018

**What do you like best about SchoolMint Hero?**

I must say I like it, for all of the years I was teaching 10+... I was more focused on the bad kids, pushing the button, pleading with them to be on task, writing discipline referrals, worried about skippers. THE GOOD KIDS GOT IGNORED AND NO REWARDS. Really the BEST KIDS, JUST SLIPPED BY CAUSE I DIDN'T HAVE TO WORRY ABOUT THEM. With this new Hero system, I get to reward the good kids, the ones that do what they are supposed to do EVERYDAY! And they can see how much I appreciate them for being good, respectful, peer tutors and just all around awesome... PLUS I FIND MYSELF ACTUALLY INTERACTING WITH THESE GOOD KIDS EVEN MORE... WE ARE NOW TALKING ABOUT THEIR LIFE AND DREAMS, FUTURE PLANS, AND COLLEGE...AND I HAVE NOTICED THAT MY PROBLEM STUDENTS ARE TRYING TO STEP UP, because they are not getting my attention anymore!!! THINK ABOUT THAT!... Plus, the students that are following the rules, YOU KNOW, THE ONES WE USED TO IGNORE... are getting rewards from the school. Like special luncheons, free movie passes, and special events. I have started to pay more attention to the everyday "awesome" students who really don't get recognized! I am loving this HeroK12 program! AND FOR ALL OF THE TEACHERS WHO THINK "WHY SHOULD I REWARD THEM FOR DOING WHAT THEY ARE SUPPOSED TO DO?"... I SAY BECAUSE NO ONE ELSE DOES! 

**What do you dislike about SchoolMint Hero?**

Need more options for custom points. I would like to give more than 1 or 2 points at a time. There should be an option were a teacher cam make their own custom rewards for their class. The students are also having difficulty recovering their password though their school email (they can only get mail from teachers). There needs to be a way for students to recover passwords without out using the school email system.

**What problems is SchoolMint Hero solving and how is that benefiting you?**

Allows me to reward students for positive behavior. Gets kids focused on being on task.

  ### 15. Love hero! 

**Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Cari T. | English Teacher, Primary/Secondary Education, Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** December 12, 2018

**What do you like best about SchoolMint Hero?**

Hero is very easy to use and it truly motivates students 

**What do you dislike about SchoolMint Hero?**

I can't look up student points on my phone 

**What problems is SchoolMint Hero solving and how is that benefiting you?**

We're reducing tardies and changing student behavior with hero.

The log in process could be quicker. Otherwise I don’t dislike anything.

I dislike that it does not synch to Power Teacher

None

  ### 20. We are really at ground level for hero.

**Rating:** 4.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Verified User in Education Management | Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** December 12, 2018

**What do you like best about SchoolMint Hero?**

I like that we can reward students for doing what is right.

**What do you dislike about SchoolMint Hero?**

It is time consuming for a teacher to give students points on top of trying to teach.

**Recommendations to others considering SchoolMint Hero:**

It is great to promote positive behavior.

**What problems is SchoolMint Hero solving and how is that benefiting you?**

Getting the students logged in and the teachers who are having trouble logging in.

  ### 21. Awesome Program...Needs a Few Tweaks

**Rating:** 4.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Tiana K. | Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** February 21, 2018

**What do you like best about SchoolMint Hero?**

I like that students can be tracked for basically any kind of behavior.  I also like that we are tracking only positive behaviors at our school because it doesn't make sense to me to deduct points for negative behaviors; we want to perpetuate the positive, so we have to acknowledge the positive behaviors as much as possible.  I also like the change in school climate that HERO has brought to our school, and I'm glad that teachers and students are getting more and more involved.

**What do you dislike about SchoolMint Hero?**

I don't like the redemption of points process.  I wish we could simply scan an ID, and a screen would pop up to show me how many points that student has as well as the student's name.  I would then want a small window to pop up that will ask me how many points I'd like to redeem, and I would simply type in how many points the kids are spending.  Right now, the redemption maximum is 250 points.  We have some things in our store worth 500, 750, 1,000, and even 10,000 points.  There are only two of us who work our store right now, so the two of us have to sit there and redeem points sometimes for 30-45 minutes after the kids leave the store to make sure everything is kept up to date and accurate.  I'm sure there is a simpler way to make this process happen.

**Recommendations to others considering SchoolMint Hero:**

Make sure your Infinite Campus or SIS system already has a data sharing agreement with HERO or Clever because it's very difficult to do manual uploads, and it's time consuming.

**What problems is SchoolMint Hero solving and how is that benefiting you?**

Well, I'm not sure if this is business related, but our school climate does seem much more positive than previous years.  Grades have gone up (for the most part), students seem happier, staff seem less stressed, and the campus itself just seems to have a way more positive vibe to it.  I can't attribute ALL of that to HERO, but I do say the implementation of this program is, in large part, the reason for the successes.  The students are also coming in for privileges and school supplies, which are fun and also necessary, so it's cool to see the things that really motivate the students.  We have kids coming in EVERY DAY to the HERO store at our school, and they love to purchase whatever they can with the points they've earned.  I think HERO is a way more universal PBIS tool than other methods we've tried in the past, so I'm happy that our school took the leap to try this.  I'm also very proud to be the point-person at our school for the HERO program. :)

  ### 22. Good start

**Rating:** 3.5/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** John C. | Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** February 16, 2018

**What do you like best about SchoolMint Hero?**

We are using HERO to track attenndance andnpositive behavior only.  The interface is great buy the app is a bit lacking.  For example, you have to individually look up a students name to track them and it doesn't give you the ability to have a class pop up.  This makes the app a bit useless.  It is easy to use and I appreciate that.

**What do you dislike about SchoolMint Hero?**

I bit to limiting in what you can convey and I wish you could link it directly to other applications we use like Skyward.

**Recommendations to others considering SchoolMint Hero:**

Use it everyday to ensure it becomes partnof your routine.

**What problems is SchoolMint Hero solving and how is that benefiting you?**

We are able to proactively measure student behavior we want to celebrate.

  ### 23. Hero Review

**Reviewed by:** Verified User in Education Management | Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** December 12, 2018

**What do you like best about SchoolMint Hero?**

The opportunity to consistently recognize positive behavior.

**What do you dislike about SchoolMint Hero?**

I dislike not being able to adjust some of the reward categories, independently.

**Recommendations to others considering SchoolMint Hero:**

Use it to help curtail unwanted behaviors within your organization.

**What problems is SchoolMint Hero solving and how is that benefiting you?**

Tardiness has decreased.

  ### 24. Hero is Great

Hero is an excellent way to electronically track student rewards

PBIS measures in the school

  ### 25. HERO WORKS

**Rating:** 4.5/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Verified User in Education Management | Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** February 22, 2018

**What do you like best about SchoolMint Hero?**

I like the flexibility HERO provides.  Our school can tailor the character traits we wish to reinforce and set it up for all teachers.

**What do you dislike about SchoolMint Hero?**

My dislikes are related to the human factor. Unfortunately, not all teachers are consistent.  So, if students are supposed to received HERO points in one class that day, and that teacher does not do it, the child loses out.  We all need to be on the same page and buy into this great program.

**Recommendations to others considering SchoolMint Hero:**

NOne

**What problems is SchoolMint Hero solving and how is that benefiting you?**

Keeping track of my students' GOOD character traits helps me focus on the positive instead of negative behaviors which is easy to fall into in the classroom with middle school students.

  ### 26. Hero and Positive School Climate

**Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Karessa P. | Robotics Teacher & PBIS Coordinator, Education Management, Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** February 22, 2018

**What do you like best about SchoolMint Hero?**

Hero helps me be intentional about focusing on the positive things happening in my classroom.

**What do you dislike about SchoolMint Hero?**

The teacher app is already great, but could use a few tweaks just to make it a little more user friendly.

**What problems is SchoolMint Hero solving and how is that benefiting you?**

I am more intentional about focusing on the positive things happening in my classroom, which in turn, makes me a happier person and promotes a much more positive classroom environment.

  ### 27. It's cool to be a HERO

**Rating:** 4.5/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Verified User in Education Management | Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** February 21, 2018

**What do you like best about SchoolMint Hero?**

The students and teachers have a goal to work towards. Students know what the incentives are and they have choice on how they choose to use their incentive points. Also, the students hold the teachers accountable for giving points as promised. I like the atmosphere and excitement that Hero promotes for doing the right things.

**What do you dislike about SchoolMint Hero?**

The initial set-up and having to deal with adding and withdrawing students.

**Recommendations to others considering SchoolMint Hero:**

Join the Hero Homeroom community and/or partner with another school in your area as it will make the initial set-up a lot easier.

**What problems is SchoolMint Hero solving and how is that benefiting you?**

Instantly making parents aware of the positive and negative behaviors at school.

Students are more prone to listen and follow directions in class, when they know that Hero points are being distributed.
