SCHOOL MESSENGER

Parents,

 

This school year our district has signed on with School Messenger, a company that provides notification services for emergency broadcasts and parental outreach for K-12 Education.

The system is programmed to call up to 5 phone numbers of parents, grandparents, neighbors, etc. for a variety of reasons that impact the safety and academic performance of your students. School Messenger will be used to complement our emergency preparedness procedures and to inform parents of upcoming school events such as statewide testing.

This system will not replace current modes of school communication. Principals are still accessible for live visits and we will still send home paper-based memoranda. Acquisition of the SchoolMessenger system is intended to reinforce the district's commitment to remain personally connected to parents.
