The American Rescue Plan and SchoolInfo

Written by Kristi Gottwalt | Apr 26, 2021 9:30:00 PM

The American Rescue Plan is providing funding for schools focused on addressing the disruption to teaching and learning as a result of the pandemic. There is a specific focus on those students that were hit hardest by the pandemic, with attention also towards getting students back into the classroom quickly and safely. 

At SchoolInfo, we are aware of the challenges faced by schools, and we're grateful that our products have made education a bit easier during this challenging time. We know the value of engaged families in the effort to overcome learning loss. If you are interested in learning more about how our products align with the goals of the American Rescue Act of 2021, read on! 

COVID-19 Screening Tool

Getting back to school safely means reducing risks from symptomatic members of the school community. A branded app by SchoolInfo allows users to complete a health screening—right from their phone. Administrators can monitor recorded screening results to reduce risks for students and staff. Learn more about the tool here

Communication Tools

From push notifications, news and information updates, to mass notification tools—administrators are able to share the latest health and safety information with their community, either as a whole or to select groups. Keeping parents and guardians informed and engaged through multiple communication channels will help students get back on track. Learn more about communication tools from SchoolInfo here

Conversations

Two-way communication can be helpful in many ways. With the Conversations functionality, all communication is managed in the app, with no personal information being shared. Group conversations and one-on-one conversations help keep everyone engaged and informed. There is also a record of communication, if referencing the communication is necessary in the future.

Video 

Engaging your audience is often easier with video. From administrators sharing important updates, to teachers sharing video with their students to facilitate lessons, SchoolInfo has a variety of video options to increase engagement. You can learn more about them here

Our product suite, which includes a branded mobile app, website, mass notification tools, and social media management, is focused on making communication simple. If you would like to learn more about how SchoolInfo aligns with The American Rescue Plan, connect with a member of our team! We would be happy to discuss your communications challenges and how we can help. 

P.S. Keep in mind, you can also use our services to keep your staff engaged! Share updated information, celebrate victories,  and send encouragement through the Conversations functionality.
