The District uses the SchoolMessenger system to deliver information about events, school closings, safety alerts and more through voice calls, emails, and SMS text messaging.
The information for phone, email, and cell phone notifications are submitted through the New and Returning Student forms in the PowerSchool Parent portal. One of our greatest challenges to maintaining an effective and efficient system will be the maintenance of accurate parent information. Should your information change throughout the year, please complete the appropriate "Change" form in PowerSchool.
For Text/SMS Messages:
The SchoolMessenger system sends a text message when a new number is added, stating "You're registered 4 SchoolMessenger notifications. Reply STOP to cancel... ".
If you mistakenly replied 'STOP' (not realizing this was a CASD notification) or if you are not currently receiving messages, and would like to opt in, text "Y" or "Yes" to 67587. If you would rather not receive the text messages, there is nothing more you need to do.
Text notifications from CASD will only go to numbers entered in the PowerSchool New Student - Part 8, Returning Student - Part 5, or Change Notification forms.
