[info-tech] Schoohoo
Preliminary testing of Schoohoo.com for text messaging alerts has been very positive. If you are looking for a way to text a large number of people about anything, not just changes in schedules and weather alerts I would suggest you check this out. Very flexible and easy to setup. We have been playing with it at an admin level for a few weeks and we will be (most likely) rolling it out next school year. Karl H.
