Greenville County Schools Is Now Able To Text Parents For Emergency Messages
- By Greenville County Schools
As the season for winter weather approaches and due to changes in telecommunications laws Greenville County Schools (GCS) is now able to text emergency messages to parents through the school messenger system if the listed home phone number is text capable. We have heard from parents that they prefer direct communication instead of social media or waiting for media announcements/scrolls. GCS does not send phone messages to families late at night or early in the morning, so a last-minute closing decision, especially one made early in the morning is sometimes missed. Texting parents provides a less intrusive way to send emergency messages during these hours.
