SchoolMessenger for Families
Parents and staff can personalize how most messages are received using the SchoolMessenger App or an online account. By creating a SchoolMessenger account (and downloading the App if desired), families and staff can select how they receive important messages via email, texts, App alerts, and/or phone calls.
Creating a SchoolMessenger account is completely optional. You will continue to receive messages as normal. However, it does have benefits for many families. See the SchoolMessenger FAQs page for more information, including details on why this may be a great option for your family.
The below video may be helpful in understanding the SchoolMessenger account and App.
To get started go to the SchoolMessenger website and click on "Sign Up" in the upper right corner. Use the email address the school has for you to create the account. For the school district, enter "Central Valley School District 356".
Helpful Hint:
- If you opted out of CVSD emails, email [email protected] and we can delete the opt out.
- If you opted out of CVSD text messages. Unblock your number by texting, from that cell phone, “Y” (just the letter, not the quotation marks) to 67587.
- FYI - if you have the app, you will receive push notifications to your phone even if you are unsubscribed from email or texts. So it is a good back-up way to receive communications.
