West Genesee Communications – Powered by SchoolMessenger
SchoolMessenger communications software allows us to send emails, texts, phone app notifications, and make phone calls. (Phone calls will be used for primarily for emergency situations only.) The Blackboard mobile phone app notifications will also be used (see below for more information).
Parent/Guardians and Staff will NOT need to sign-up to receive information from schools that you are registered for in Schooltool. (You will have the option to opt out if you choose not to receive emails, texts, and/or phone calls.)
Please email the Publications Office at publications@westgenesee.org with any questions. Here is more information about the Communications system.
Blackboard Mobile Phone App
Push-out notifications will be made from the West Genesee Mobile Phone App for iPhone and Android.
