About Schoology
Schoology is a K-12 learning management system for coursework, grades, attendance, exams, and family messages, built as a social-style feed that school districts still compare with Google Classroom more than a decade after the official May 1 2009 public company launch. Jeremy Friedman, Ryan Hwang, and Tim Trinidad started it in 2007 while students at Washington University in St. Louis; Wikipedia dates the company launch to May 1 2009. Funding rounds listed there include $6 million in 2012, $15 million in 2014, and $32 million in November 2015. By November 2013 Schoology claimed over 7.5 million users across 60,000 schools. PowerSchool completed the purchase on November 25 2019, EdSurge reported two days later. That piece, citing Friedman, put Schoology at 1,800 paying schools and districts. Moody's, in the same article, put revenue near $35 million and said the deal was funded in part by a $70 million loan. Wikipedia lists PowerSchool, owned by Bain Capital, as owner. Students still search the product name, not the parent, at app.schoology.com.
What the time series shows
Google Search interest for schoology follows the United States school calendar: a July floor, an August climb, a September peak, then Thanksgiving and winter-break drops, on a 261-week series that opened at 87 on August 28 2021 and peaked at 100 on September 3 2022. The latest ramp is 9 on July 4 2026, 14 on July 25, 29 on August 8, 42 on August 15, and 58 on August 22. Same-week 2025 was 73, 2024 was 89, 2023 was 85, so 2026 is still behind those late-August marks and has not yet reached last year's 71 on September 13. Holiday drops are part of the shape, not noise: 16 on November 29 2025, 9 on December 27 2025, 7 on January 3 2026. The recent 30-day absolute change is 44 points (14 to 58) against a prior 30-day change of 5 points (9 on June 20 to 14). Summer 2026 bottomed at 9, the same July floor as 2023 and 2024.

Schoology's 58 is the mid-pack login query on this pull, still 42 points below the September 3 2022 peak of 100.
