Stay Connected

  • Home
  • The School District of University City communicates with parents and families in numerous ways.

    SchoolMessenger is our parent notification tool. Parents can opt in to receive emails, robocalls and texts via this system. Please make sure that we have yourr current contact information at all times by visiting the Parent Portal and making necessary updates. The Office of Communications typicallly sends a weekly Superintendent email to all families through SchoolMessenger with timely updates and information. We hope you find the information useful. You may opt out of these emails at any time through the Parent Portal. 

    • Texting to cell phones is a very effective way for the District to alert parents and caregivers of critical or time sensitive emails arrriving in their inboxes. Texting is not used for all emails, but just for those that are very important. The District highly recommends opting in to receive texts so you don't miss critical information. This can be done via the Parent Portal. If your cell phone information is accurate and up-to-date in the Parent Portal, users can opt-in to texts via this shortcut:
      • On your cell phone, text Yes to 67587.

    Weather and Emergency Closures: Parents, caregivers and staff will receive an email, text and phone call via SchoolMessenger immediately after any closure decision.

    Superintendent Family Emails are typically sent on Fridays via SchoolMessenger. For a complete archive of past emails, click here.

    Zoom with the Superintendent is a regular series of online sessions to meet and ask questions with Superintendent Sharonica Hardin-Bartley. Click here to register for the next upcoming sessions.

    Individual School Emails are sent to parents by school principals on a weekly basis.
