Henrico schools adopt emergency alert system

Henrico County parents can feel a bit better about their children’s safety when it comes to being alerted via several means of communication for emergency issues.
Compiled from NBC-12 News:

“It will allow parents to receive information they need from cell phones, home phones, e-mails or text message,” said Fred S. Morton, Henrico County Superintendent of Schools.

Each student, staff member or parent can submit up to six phone numbers and two e-mail addresses to be entered in the system. School principals will have access to the system, and will be able to record messages to be sent out.

Check out a video of this news report.

  1. posted by Near West End News » Henrico Alert Sign up Info - Richmond, Virginia at September 2, 2007 6:37 am :

    [...] Kory posted earlier this week about Henrico County Schools using an alert system for parents. That service is also available to the general public. Basically, if there is a local emergency, Henrico will send you an email or a text message letting you know and telling you what you should do next. You can enter 2 cell phones (or Blackberry devices) and 2 email addresses per account. If you live or work in Henrico County this is a valuable service. You can even tell the Alert system where you live and work, so they know specifically what alerts will affect you. Even if you live on the city side of the Near West End, it would be worthwhile to register since the City of Richmond doesn’t yet offer this service. To sign up click here.
