Announcements & alerts
Create once. Deliver everywhere.
From district-wide emergency alerts to a single classroom’s reminder — School Courier carries every level of school communication on one platform, with role-based publishing and a record your administrators can review.
The model
Three channels. Each controllable.
Not every message deserves a siren. School Courier separates communication into three channels so urgency stays meaningful — and families never learn to ignore you.
Mass alerts
School-wide closings and emergency broadcasts. Delivered as push, text, email, and voice — whatever it takes to reach every family, fast.
Group posts
Day-to-day updates from classrooms, teams & clubs, pushed to the families who follow them. Personal, relevant, and mutable per group.
Direct messages
Private, tracked conversations between families and staff — for the questions that don’t belong on a feed.
Every altitude
District-wide to classroom-deep
Publish “Thanksgiving — No School” to every building in the district with one post. Let each school run its own news, calendar & dining menus. Let every teacher keep their classroom families in the loop. Same platform, same record, right altitude every time.
- District-wide announcements to every school at once
- School-level news, events, calendars & dining menus
- Classroom & team updates from the staff who run them
- Emergency broadcasts that cut through everything
- Role-based publishing: administrators, staff & leaders each in their lane
Built for your seat
What it means for your role
One message, every school, zero phone trees
Post district-wide — a closing, a holiday, a board update — and it reaches every school at once, while each building keeps its own feed, calendar, and groups. Roll your district up under one app or give each school its own branded presence; families with children at different schools switch without re-logging in.
- District-wide + per-school publishing
- Every message retained for review
- One platform to govern instead of ten
Your whole building, informed by Friday afternoon
Early dismissal, picture day, the pep rally — post once to School News and every following family gets the push notification. Teachers handle their own classrooms, coaches their teams, and you can see it all, because it all happens on one school-controlled platform.
- Building-wide announcements in seconds
- Classroom & team updates without a second tool
- Staff-controlled posting — no rogue channels
Consistent voice, every channel, less busywork
Mass alerts deliver as push, text, email, and voice from a single send — create once, deliver everywhere. Writing Help polishes drafts (clearer, shorter, warmer, more detail, grammar) and translates posts into 10 languages, so every family reads your message in their own language.
- Push, text, email & voice from one send
- Writing Help + 10-language translation
- Your brand on the app, not a vendor’s
One vendor to vet, nothing for you to babysit
