District to use ALERTNOW Notification Service
as an additional communication tool between the school district and parents--Keeping
parents informed is a top priority of the Bethel Park School District, and
we will be using the ALERTNOW Notification Service to send telephone and/or
email messages to parents and/or employees to notify them of things such as
school delays or cancellations due to inclement weather. With
ALERTNOW, you won't have to watch television to wait for Bethel Park's
status to scroll onto the screen. Parents will be notified by phone
when the district makes the decision to close or delay. ALERTNOW can
also be used to remind parents of upcoming events at school. But most
importantly, in an emergency, ALERTNOW has the capability to launch 12,000
phone calls a minute, so parents don't have to rely on Phone Chains to get
emergency information. In an emergency, ALERTNOW has the capability to
call up to three phone numbers per student. ALERTNOW also has the
capability to send out email messages to one email
address per student, but we will not test the email system until the fall. Your
child will be bringing a form home for parents to complete with your updated
contact information. It is important that you complete the forms and
return them to school as soon as possible so we have the most up-to-date
contact information for you. Please click
here
to learn more about ALERTNOW. We hope you will agree that ALERTNOW is
another way the district can keep parents up to date. |

| Edline Now Available for Bethel Park High School Parents! Parents whose children attend Bethel Park High School now have electronic access to their child's academic progress through Edline. In September all parents received an Edline Activation Code via U.S. Mail. Parents are encouraged to go to www.edline.net and activate their child's account. The website will guide you through the process. Once an account is activated, parents can see their child's interim grades posted for the 2nd, 4th, 6th and 8th weeks for assignments, tests and quizzes, as well as attendance and final report card grades. Parents who have difficulty accessing Edline can contact Donna Murphy (412-854-8581),
Wanda Gratton (412-854-8591), Judy Daley (412-854-8584) or Lynne Pieczynski (412-854-8571). We encourage all parents to stay up to date with their child's progress via Edline. Parents who do not have access to the Internet can do so at the Bethel Park Library. Librarians are available to assist. |
