What is SchoolStatus Connect?
SchoolStatus Connect is a central communications tool for schools and districts. With SchoolStatus Connect, families can communicate back and forth with their child’s teachers, and stay up-to-date on what’s happening in the school and district - all from one place!
How can I receive communications from my school or my child’s teachers?
SchoolStatus Connect lets you choose how you want to receive communications. You can choose to receive notifications through email, text message, or push notification if you download the app. All communications will also be auto-translated into your preferred language.
If you are not receiving communications from SchoolStatus Connect, please check with your school or district to confirm your contact information is correct.
How can I update my language or communication preferences?
Guardians can update their language and communication preferences at any time from their avatar within SchoolStatus Connect. This is important to ensure you are receiving communications the way you want!
Useful Resources:
- How do I change my preferred method of communication?
- How do I change the frequency of notifications?
How will I receive notifications if I have both a phone number and an email address?
Note: If you have both email and SMS contact details, your default notification method is based on the communication preference set in your user profile.
If notifications are not successfully sent to the preferred channel, the system will use the alternative method. For example, if the user's email inbox is full and the notifications are not delivered successfully, the system will send the notifications to SMS. Once the issue behind the failed emails is resolved, and the user’s email status is reset either by the user or by Connect support, the system will revert to sending communications via the preferred channel - email.
How can I send my child’s teacher a message?
There are essentially three ways you can reach out to one of your child’s teachers.
After a teacher has contacted you first, you can reply via email or text message. In some cases, this setting may be disabled for certain Announcements in which the sender is not allowing replies.
Login to the SchoolStatus portal and use the Conversations feature to start a conversation with a teacher. Learn more here!
