We're excited to announce that Blue Ridge ISD has launched Attendance Pro by Apptegy, a new way for families to stay connected with their child's school around attendance, all through a simple text message.
Starting today, you'll receive real-time attendance updates directly to your phone when your child is marked absent or tardy. No app to download, no phone call to the front office, no portal to log into, just a straightforward text that makes it easy to stay informed and respond in seconds.
Say hello to a better attendance experience!
Get notified instantly. Receive a text message the moment your child is marked absent, no waiting for a call or checking an app.
Reply by text, in your preferred language. Simply text back to confirm an absence, share the reason, a photo of the doctors note, or ask a question. All messages are automatically translated to your preferred language.
Send proactive notices. Know your child will be out? Text us ahead of time and we'll document it, no need to call the front office.
Families should have automatically started receiving messages from the platform today. Once you have received a message, save the contact so you can reply and reach out, whenever you need!
Attendance matters, and everyday counts. We’re excited to bring forward a better, more modern experience to help you, and us, drive better attendance across every day.
