Nothing feels worse for a parent than not being alerted when their child is affected at school, whether due to a scheduled event or due to an emergency. But staying connected and knowing what is going on with the school is not easy. You can give all your phone numbers and contact information to the school but unless they have the manpower and time to call you, perhaps multiple times, you won't get the message. Emergency alert systems are a good way for schools to stay connected with parents.
Parents that are kept informed are more likely to remain active in their child's school life. This applies not only to emergency alerts but regular reminders and special notifications, as in the case of an absent child, or other notifications to help parents remain in the loop rather than to feel distanced from what's happening at their child's school. Emergency alert systems such as Parent Reach incorporate both emergency alerts and regular notifications into one system allowing you to easily keep parents abreast of activities, functions, and special notices that keep them fully informed.
Parent Reach is one of the emergency alert systems that can inform parents if there is an emergency at their school. The great thing about this system is that it allows for multiple contacts for each child to ensure that a parent is alerted to the emergency. It's no longer just phone calls; this alert system works with voice mail, text and email to make sure that you reach a parent no matter where they may be.
Parent Reach is one of those emergency alert systems that can do much more than just call in an emergency. It can be a way to contact parents about important events coming up, remind them about field trips, or pass on any message that may not have been brought home by the student.
Parent Reach is one of those emergency alert systems that can act as a bridge between parents and the school to ensure that parents always stay informed about important things you want them to know. Highly flexible, this system allows you to create multiple lists so you can make grade specific, school specific, district wide announcements to particular groups of parents.
You can even set up templates for anticipated possibilities and for daily recurring events. Templates allow you a fast and easy way to notify parents by simply selecting the template and a list for launching your broadcast announcement. Typically, emergency alert systems can be activated by computer or from any phone giving you easy access from wherever you happen to be.
