We found out that two of our students received the honor of being named Academic All-State. This is a huge honor, as only 100 seniors statewide are chosen. We are extremely proud of them!

DISTRICT AND SCHOOL COMMUNICATION TO PARENTS
For the 25-26 school year, Byng Schools will be using ParentSquare for school communication, primarily with email, text and app notifications. ParentSquare automatically generates an account for each parent, using their preferred email address and phone number.
As some staff are doing preliminary testing using Parent Square this Spring, we encourage parents to access their accounts so they can download the mobile app and update their preferences on when and how they are notified.

BrightArrow – System for School Messaging (robocalls)
TEXT MESSAGES FOR WEATHER ALERTS AND OTHER SCHOOL MESSAGES
The BrightArrow system allows school personnel to send parents text messages. Once a phone number is opted-in, all text messages will come from the Short Code 79041. The initial message asking you to opt-in will be coming from a phone number in the format with 424-###-####, so please be aware that those text messages are coming from your school. The school may announce with an email when they are sending the opt-in message. Simply reply YES to the message asking you to opt-in and your phone number will receive future text messages. You may also at any time opt-in to text messages from your school by sending YES to the short code 79041. You must have your phone number on file with the school to receive text messages, this is an opt-in mechanism, not a subscribe mechanism. Once you opt-in, BrightArrow will send you a confirmation that your phone number is opted-in. Sometimes a message will arrive in all three forms (email, text, voice). To edit which contacts receive messages, use the Forms tab on the Parent portal and under Form F, use the “Enable Robocalls” checkbox. Or, call the school office and they can assist.
