what's happening at JES . . .: November 2015

Emergency Alert Test

Dear Parents and Community Members,

Jericho Elementary School, as well as the other schools of Chittenden East, is replacing its old emergency notification system with Schoolmessenger as of November 18th.

We will test the new emergency notification system on Wednesday, November 18th, at 6:00PM. The system informs you of urgent information such as school closures, delays or emergencies.

You may have received a test two weeks ago from the old system. We apologize for any inconvenience that a second test may cause. The new system was not available to us in August, and we had to keep the old and tested system in place until now.

Phone calls, emails and/or text messages will be sent you. Posts will be made to the school's website, Facebook and Twitter accounts.

Note: If you requested text messaging, you will receive a text message from Schoolmessenger or Chittenden East on Tuesday, November 17th asking you to accept future text messages. You must accept that request in order to receive future text messages.

If do not wish to be in the system, please contact us at 802-899-2272.
