New Electronic Fyer Communication Tool Called Peachjar

button-blue-stacked

Effective Tuesday, Dec. 13, BISD launched a new electronic flyer communication tool called Peachjar. A Peachjar button was placed on each campus website, so parents, students and staff can easily view, in a digital format, all flyers that are currently in circulation. Families will now receive an email when new flyers are uploaded. Visitors can also click the Peachjar button to view flyers on the website or soon within the mobile app. Appropriate campus staff have completed training and flyers are beginning to circulate. 

For additional information on Peachjar, go to www.birdvilleschools.net/peachjar.

This “green” initiative will save our schools tons of paper and reduce copy costs by thousands of dollars. Posting school flyers in this electronic backpack also removes a significant administrative burden from teachers, office staff, and volunteers. 

Reminder: Change your Voicemail and Email to Reflect Holiday Break

attention

Before you leave for the holiday break, is your voicemail and email updated?

As we prepare for the holiday break, please make sure all phone messages and out of office emails reflect current information concerning days off and returning dates for your campus or department.

Campus principals need to make sure that the main campus voicemail message reflects pertinent information for your campus.
