[quote=Anonymous]I think that having an app-only communication mechanism misses an entire section of the population. Some classrooms at our school used the Bloomz app, and over half of the class never checked it (or probably downloaded the app). I'm a huge fan of electronic communication, but I think we should stick to email until everyone is really using nothing but applications on smartphones. We aren't there yet. Plus, there are a lot of grandparents that take care of kids at our school, so I'm pretty sure that most (not all) don't really use a smart phone either. I'd stick to emails (from teachers, other parents and administration) plus robo calls/texts for emergencies (school closings). They also need to do some paper flyers and posters to get messages across. I'm super organized and I forgot some things this year as well![/quote]
