[Counselors] FW: Question

[Dana Martin]

School Connect is FREE and pretty stinking amazing!!! It's an app that parents download and a way that administration can push notifications to all subscribers. It has all sorts of bells and whistles!! 

We are getting it here in Guymon but I've seen it used by parents, teachers, and administrators in other districts. The makers/programmers know how to make a school app that is friendly and relevant to users!

We all know that JH & HS students do not take home notes, calendars, etc.  How are other schools communicating with their parents.  I know some schools send out text messages to parents but what do they use to send this mass text?  Is it a program you buy or something on the internet?
