The SchoolMessenger app in your Parent Portal will help you stay informed and engaged with your child's school activities. Here's a simple breakdown of what parents can do with this app:
You can get instant alerts about school events, emergencies, closures, or important announcements directly on your phone or computer.
You can choose how you want to receive messages from our schools via text, email, or phone call and decide which types of messages you want to receive.
