Emergency Notifications: Opt-in or Change Contact Information
-
It is extremely important that you make sure your contact information is always up to date with the staff in the main office at your child's school. This is how the district will contact you in the event of weather cancelations or emergency situations.
Guardians, who have Messenger checked and have their Messenger Preferences filled out on Infinite Campus, receive mass notifications in the event of weather cancelations or other emergencies.
In order to receive emergency texts, you must opt in. Infinite Campus requires this, as not all families have access to a cell phone or unlimited text messaging.
Emergency contacts are only used in the event of individual student emergencies if guardians can't be reached.
