District Notification System Test graphic with snowflakes

Take a moment to update your information

Winter weather will soon be here. To ensure families get the information they need around school closings or delays, or other emergency information, we will be conducting a test of our district notification system on Tuesday, November 19 at 6:30 p.m. The system is used to notify parents and staff members about school closings or delays or other emergency information.

Now is a good time to update your contact information, as well as your preferences for how you would like to receive messages. Depending on your communication preferences, you will receive an email, text message, voicemail and/or push notification from the SLP mobile app.

If you’re satisfied with how you are receiving communications, you don’t need to do anything further. Please watch for the test message on Tuesday, November 19 at 6:30 p.m. to make sure you are getting information where and how you prefer.
