What's in a household
One family, one record.
Guardians and students, together
Create detailed profiles for families, students, and staff with addresses, phone numbers, emails, and relationships, grouped into the household they belong to.
Centralized updates
When you update an address, phone number, or emergency contact, that change carries across the platform, whether in enrollment, tuition, or communications. No more duplicate records.
Integrated with everything
When a family fills out an enrollment application, their information populates their record. Tuition and invoices link back to the same household.
Smart search and filters
Look people up by name, email, phone or household, and narrow by status or grade level, so the list you need is a couple of clicks away.
Notes that keep context
Leave notes on any household so the next person who follows up knows what was said, without digging through someone's inbox.
Permissions and privacy
Role-based permissions mean each staff member sees only what's relevant to their responsibilities, so sensitive information stays with the people who need it.

See all questionsWhat is household management?
It keeps each family's guardians, students, contact details and notes together in one directory, and links them to enrollment, tuition and invoices. Update an address once and it carries across the platform.
Is household management free?
Basic household management is included in the free Essentials plan, along with enrollment applications and free events.
Can I give my staff their own access?
Yes. Invite each person with a role, such as admin, instructor or accountant, so they see what their job needs and nothing more.
How do I get my existing information into Lazarus?
Sometimes it is as simple as sending a few reports. When it is harder, we work with you closely and can handle the migration ourselves.
Who can see sensitive student and staff information?
Access is role-based. Each person sees only what their role needs, and you control permissions for every staff member.
What happens to our data at academic year rollover?
Historical data is kept. Relevant student and staff information carries forward automatically, and previous years stay available for reporting.
