New app connects parents with Manassas City Schools

Manassas City Public Schools have a new way to communicating with parents.

The school division launched a new mobile application that is billed as an all-in-one, go-to source for information about Manassas schools. The school division states the app can be used by parents, teachers, and students.

The app inclues the following featues:

路 Calendar information for schools and division events that can be integrated into personal calendars.
路 Directories with contact information for various staff.
路 Links and feeds to the division鈥檚 Facebook, Twitter and YouTube sites.
路 Access to school boundary and bus route information, as well as Food Services food menus.
路 Access to the division鈥檚 Let鈥檚 Talk Feedback platform

The school division earlier this year launched a “Let’s Talk” feature that allows parents to leave about back-to-school nights, and to contact department heads in the school system. Users of the “Let’s Talk” feature may post their names or remain annoymous. Users who provide their email are guaranteed a response, according to a school division spokeswoman.

The new app is available on the school division’s website, at the Apple store, and on Google Play.
