Can you believe it’s been three weeks since we wrapped up AeriesCon Spring 2024? The energy was truly palpable as we celebrated the Golden Tradition of AeriesCon together in Sacramento!
Through our conferences, growth of our company, and product enhancements over the past 29 years, we’ve remained committed to building a community that fosters knowledge and the constant need to be adaptable. In fact, President Brent Lloyd took the stage Friday morning to present his vision of how we keep our eye on the future, ear on the present, and hand on the past.
Guided by our north star of advancing student success, we’re harnessing the power of our compass to steer toward the 10th version of Aeries. We remain committed to enhanced security, greater optimization, and faster performance. But most importantly, we remain committed to continual, vibrant innovation.

We leverage new tools (including AI), in a manner that preserves the relationship that we have with all of our customers. Instead of replacing the human element, we want to optimize it and supplement it with tools that make it more impactful for you.
Additionally, Brent shared a few sneak peeks of what our teams have been working on, including enhancements to the Login Page, Landing Page, and Student Profile page. These improvements will allow for consistency between pages, a more consistent user experience, and improved response times.
In a nod to our strong and growing Community, Brent also announced the winners of our inaugural Golden Tradition Awards. Positively impacting their district, work site, and colleagues, these individuals embody everything that makes Aeries, Aeries. Congratulations to the following winners:
