Dear Parents,

Keeping you informed is a top priority at PACE Preparatory Academy.  For that reason, we have enlisted the ALERTNOW Notification Service which allows us to send a telephone or e-mail message to you that provides important information about school events or emergencies. We anticipate using ALERTNOW to notify you of school delays or cancellations due to inclement weather, as well as remind you about various events, including report card distribution, open house, attendance issues, and more.  In the event of an emergency at school, you can have peace of mind knowing that you will be informed immediately by phone.

What you need to know about receiving calls sent through ALERTNOW

· Caller ID will display the school’s main number when general announcement is delivered.

· Caller ID will display 411 if the message is a dire emergency.

· ALERTNOW will leave a message on any answering machine or voicemail.

· If the ALERTNOW message stops playing, press 1 and the message will replay from the beginning.

We are very excited to incorporate ALERTNOW as a tool to improve parent/guardian communications and look forward to having the ability to deliver real time information to you and provide awareness of all the events that take place within the school.

Please notify the school if and when you have a change of your phone number(s) and or e-mail address.

Thank You,

Administration
