Plainfield Public Schools Launches Mobile App to Keep Community Informed and Involved
Plainfield Public Schools
launched an official mobile app designed to enable parents, staff,
students and the broader community to stay informed and up-to-date on
important issues, information and activities underway within the school
community. The free app, which proudly displays the Plainfield Public
Schools logo, mascot, colors and content, can be downloaded for Apple
iOS iTunes and Android Google Play .
Developed
in partnership with West Corporation, the trusted provider of
SchoolMessenger Solutions for education, the new app will provide
families with 24/7/365 access to calendars, lunch menus, directories,
events, sports schedules and results and more. New information feeds
will continue to be made available in the app over the coming school
year.
Highly
secure and flexible, the district’s new app is built on a communication
platform that permits the district to manage and share content easily.
Key features include:
- Lunch menus
- Resources
- Calendars
- Family Portal
- Staff directories
With
budget limitations a reality for schools throughout the nation, West
was able to partner with the district to deliver this affordable new
communication channel. The new app will help the district reach its
goals for effective and accessible communications throughout the entire
school community.
