Three Ways Districts Can Adjust Their Service-Discovery Process

Written by Paige Kummer | May 6, 2021 5:50:30 PM

As many K-12 school districts continue with remote learning, schools need to think critically about how best they communicate with parents to better facilitate student learning and keep up their commitment to building a welcoming school community.

A central challenge to this goal is not having a communications strategy adjusted to students learning both in the classroom and online. However, a modern portal where students and families can stay informed and access school resources can be transformative.

All of your stakeholders can access content and services from a single interface

Managing personal communication, mass notifications, and urgent alerts typically require different platforms and apps. Having applications in a single location where school districts can monitor how people search for their content is found and used is crucial. 

 

You can achieve increased access through a single interface in a mobile-friendly environment. The OneCampus portal is ideal as it offers school districts options to keep parents and families aware of school news of concern. Plus, OneCampus offers staff and teachers a way to access internal services and information.

 

Communicating to different audiences simultaneously

Individually messaging, emailing, or printing announcements and information can consume much of your time. Schools and districts need ways to send targeted information to parents and families. In a world where Student Information System (SIS) and Single Sign-On (SSO) integrated software is increasing, targeted content will become an expectation.

 

Protecting user data while providing contact information 

Teachers want to be available for their students while safeguarding their privacy. Listing the best possible email address or a school phone number can save considerable time for a student or parent looking for ways to contact a teacher.

Schools and districts have a responsibility to secure personal data, and they want peace of mind that the software they use does not store sensitive user data.
