SchoolMessenger

SchoolMessenger is our automated emergency notification system that communicates with families through email, text messages, and telephone calls. The primary use of the system will be to notify our families of delayed openings, early dismissals, school closings, and emergencies. Schools may also use this service to push out reminders. Parents are asked to provide current e-mails and phone numbers which will be added to SchoolMessenger system from our student information system, PowerSchool. After parents submit their phone number, they must text “Y” or “Yes” to 67587 from that device in order to be eligible to receive text messages.
