Instant Communication With Push Notifications
Push notifications have a 97% response rate, and 90% are read within 3 minutes of receipt. This gives you the ability to instantly connect with parents, students and staff. And, according to a report by Forrester, push notifications also have a 50% higher open rate than traditional email.
Here are just a few ways push notifications can help when communication is most critical:
Weather Alerts
When bad weather strikes, your school’s mobile app can be a communication lifeline. Keep your school informed with up-to-the-minute weather and school alerts to make sure your students stay safe.
Important Dates
Teachers can quickly share due-date changes, project updates, or snow day assignments.
Venue Changes
Staff can easily let everyone know about last-minute venue changes and delayed or rescheduled events and games.
