The Savannah-Chatham
County Public School System is committed to educational excellence and ensuring
that parents stay informed about important activities and events that enhance
their child’s life. In an effort to improve parent and community engagement, SCCPSS
will begin using Peachjar to send digital flyers directly to our families on
Tuesday, March 12, 2019.
Digital flyers
will be sent directly to parents who see them as visually engaging images right
on their smartphone or computer screen. Additionally, all flyers will be posted
to each school’s website. Parents will be able to click to register their
children for youth sports, enrichment programs, and community events.
By using this new
system, SCCPSS expects to eliminate the need to print hundreds of thousands of
flyers per year– saving hundreds of trees in the process! Additionally, the school district no longer
incurs the administrative burden and costs associated with paper flyer distribution. Community Partners will be able to upload
flyers they wish delivered to our schools, and once the flyer is approved, it
will be included in a digital newsletter to parents. All flyers sent out from your child’s school
will also always be accessible through the Peachjar button on your school
website.
We hope this
change improves the communications experience for all!
