SchoolMessenger Communication System

Introduction

The St Johns County School District has partnered with SchoolMessenger to quickly and efficiently communicate both general and emergency messages to parents/guardians and staff using email, text, and voice mail. The system can send thousands of messages in minutes.

To participate in this service, you must indicate your willingness to receive text messages to your phone. The process is simple and only takes a few seconds to complete.

Parents and staff who wish to receive text messages from this system must, (1) simply text the word Yes to the number 67587.  (2) have their mobile number on file with their child’s school (for parents/guardians) or on file with Employee Online (for staff/employees).

How to Stop Unsolicited Messages

If you are a SJCSD Parent/Guardian, please see the directions to Manage Your Contact Preferences in SchoolMessenger InfoCenter.

If you are NOT a SJCSD Parent/Guardian and have received an unsolicited email, phone call or text message from SchoolMessenger, please click one of the buttons below.

SchoolMessenger InfoCenter

SchoolMessenger provides parents/guardians with a mobile app and website called InfoCenter which allows them to view and listen to previous messages and to verify their phone numbers. InfoCenter also lets parents/guardians select which modes of communication they prefer (voice/text/email) based on the type of message being sent. InfoCenter is both a website and an app you can download on your smartphone, so even if you do not have a smartphone, you can still access InfoCenter by visiting https://infocenter.schoolmessenger.com.

View the SchoolMessenger InfoCenter App Instructions to learn how to download the SchoolMessenger InfoCenter app on your smartphone and login to set your messaging preferences. If you would prefer to use the website version, please see how to Manage Your Contact Preferences Using the SchoolMessenger InfoCenter Website.
