The Arlington Central School District has been using the SchoolMessenger Notification System. We
use SchoolMessenger to phone you about student absences, school closings, delays and early
dismissals, and to remind you about school activities and important dates. This communication tool
will also be used in the event of an emergency. A message describing the event or providing specific
instructions can be created and sent within minutes of its occurrence.
Contact Manager Expands Flexibility and Accessibility
SchoolMessenger has replaced Newsflash! In order to receive messages via email or text messaging,
sign up for a Contact Manager account! In addition to receiving phone calls, through
SchoolMessenger’s Contact Manager you can also choose to get your messages via email and/or text
messaging. Contact Manager allows you to select which types of messages you would like to receive
and at which phone number or email address. It also works like a mailbox, giving you a place to
review messages you may have missed. If you choose not to set up a Contact Manager account, you
will only receive messages on your home phone number. You will not receive emails or text messages
until you activate Contact Manager.
