New! Rapid Alert System

We are excited to inform you that our school has a new rapid alert system to improve communication with our families. It’s called Parent Alert, and it will allow us to send out communications via Text, Email, and Voice Messages for all types of events. These alerts can be used for many reasons but will also provide us a fast efficient way to communicate with our families in case of an emergency.

A Sample Text Alert may look like:

SBSJ-CT This is a Parent Alert from St James School. To ensure you are able to receive our alerts please text the word START to 317065 from your mobile device. Any text alerts from our school will begin with SBSJ-CT, and calls will show from 860-643-5088. Text STOP to end.

We will test this new Parent Alert service on Monday, August 26th around 3:00pm.

Please note that email alerts sent via this system will show noreply@pikmykid.com as the “from” email address. Please be assured that this is from the school and is not spam. Please don’t unsubscribe, as that would cause you to miss future email alerts sent using this method.

Note: Per Telephone Consumer Protection Act we must provide all recipients the option to Opt Out of receiving our alerts. Anytime we send out a text alert you will see “Stop to End”. If you reply “Stop” you will no longer receive our text alerts regardless if we select you as a recipient.
