We've had very positive responses from our families. They were very appreciative about improving the communication between the school and our families.
"I made one call from my cell phone on the road Saturday, and 10,000 parents received my call that afternoon. The attendance boost we got from that call really helped us. We will capture almost $1 million more than last year in state aid monies"
"I made one call, recorded the message, and bang—every parent got the message. We had a huge turnout despite bad weather. I could have sent flyers, but they rarely get a good response, I doubt most parents ever see them."
"It seems that the use of the program is limitless for ease and convenience. I would recommend its use"
"Many seniors participate in the co-op program and leave early in the school day to go to work. Daily announcements are great, but everyone will not hear them. One Call Now is a powerful tool that enables me to reach the entire class of 2008."
"By calling not only all our parents, but every voter in the wards that historically support the schools, we won by a decisive margin."
"The district uses the system to send out, very quickly, announcements regarding school closings and other important information that needs to be disseminated quickly. We're "sold" on this product!!!"
"Thank you for walking me through the process step-by-step without a glitch. My message was sent successfully thanks to your help."
"One Call Now has made life easier for our entire school family. It’s fast, efficient, easy to use, and affordable."
"One Call Now emailed me the Group ID and PIN immediately on Monday, and set up our users in about 2 hours after I emailed the calling list. I tried a test call on Monday night, and 97% of the phone numbers were reached"
"Parents, especially those who work out of town, love getting the notices by phone so that they can make arrangements for child care when the regular schedule changes. Our school even has parents call to suggest additional ways to use it."
"Our children’s safety is of the highest concern and One Call Now has provided us with a means to ensure safety—quickly!"
"I can easily send out a call to each of the 79 telephone numbers I have, and not only reach my cast and crew members in minutes, but also, using the touch tone response feature, find out who would be available for an extra rehearsal."
