Keeping Parents Connect-ED with School

On January 2nd, 2008, Federal Way Public Schools will launch a new service that will help the district and schools communicate more quickly, accurately and efficiently with parents, staff and students. With the Connect-ED® service, schools can send periodic and personalized voice messages and/or e-mail to parents within minutes. The service will be used to complement the district’s emergency preparedness procedures and to inform parents of upcoming school events such as statewide testing, fund-raisers and PTA meetings. More information about the Connect-ED service is available at http://www.blackboardconnect.com.
