Sending Truant Students Back Where They Belong
Truancy is FamilyFirst Alerts’ most popular feature. Our truancy program is fully hosted, web-based, which this application is compatible with all Student Information System (SIS). There are no hidden fees, no additional phone lines, any hardware, or even software. The system identifies absent students and sends an appropriate notification to their parent(s) or guardian(s); this would include SMS (text-messaging), email, voice notification, and a letter sent out after the student has reached the specified number of absences, and a full report is available and is updated.
FamilyFirst Has Success In Texas
Tim Mosolino, Vice President of Sales, recently returned from Texas where he trained the following school districts on the implementation and operation of FamilyFirst Alerts: Rockwall ISD, Winfree Academy, Lubbock-Cooper ISD, and Melissa ISDE. He welcomed these school districts into the extended family of FamilyFirst Alerts users.
FamilyFirst Alerts (FFA) was selected by Rockwall over seven competing systems for mass communication. FFA provides a complete solution for emergency and non emergency mass communication. Training is free and support is 24/7. FFA makes it easy for schools and parents to keep connected.
