ISD 317 Deer River

Recently ISD 317 Deer River unveiled an instant mass communication system called "Instant Alert".  Instant Alert brings the news directly to parents and they can decide how and where they receive these messages.  The system is very flexible and allows users to choose how they are contacted through multiple communication tools including e-mail, cell phones, PDAs .....

We used this system to announce the April 7th school closings (inclement weather).  Parents and/or Guardians of students in ISD 317 Schools received an automated message with this closing information (the message was sent out to the home phone number on file at the schools).

For more information on this service, and to learn how to setup advanced features, you can reference the documents and directions listed below.
