EMERGENCY COMMUNICATIONS SYSTEM
Wills Point ISD is implementing a system for emergency communications using computers and cell phone text messaging. This system allows the district to communicate its emergencies or breaking news, to its staff, parents, and other interested subscribers, direct to their e-mail and/or personal cell phone.
WPISD employees, parents and any community members are now able to self- register and manage up to five home or office e-mail and/or cell phone text message addresses and receive emergency information just minutes after we post it, at no cost to you.
All subscriber cell phone numbers and e-mail addresses are maintained at an off-site server. Your computer and cell phone are protected and will not be available to any offline or text messaging marketers.
