District App Appazur & Communication Platform

Introducing The District App Appazur & Communication Platform

Your New Parent Communication and Notification System

Three Rivers Community Schools is excited to announce the launch of The District App Appazur—a modern, secure, and efficient platform replacing SchoolMessenger for all parent notifications and district communications. This innovative app is designed to keep you informed and connected, providing real-time updates and a seamless communication experience. The District App Appazur will fully replace SchoolMessenger beginning in the 2026–2027 school year.

Key Features of The District App Appazur

• Email Updates:
  Receive weekly newsletters, district news, upcoming events, and timely alerts directly in your inbox.

• Phone Notifications:
  For urgent messages—such as school closings due to inclement weather or other emergencies—The District App Appazur ensures you’re notified immediately. Non-emergency messages are limited, so your personal time is respected.

• Text Messaging:
  Opt in to receive SMS notifications (note: your carrier’s rates may apply).

• Social Media Integration:
  The app syncs with our district’s social media accounts, allowing important notifications to be shared on platforms like Facebook.

• Up-to-Date Information:
  To receive all communications without interruption, please confirm that your most current email address and phone numbers are on file.

District App Appazur Phone Consent

Managing Your Communication Preferences

Federal regulations require parental consent for non-emergency phone calls. With The District App Appazur, you can easily manage your preferences:

• Set Your Preferences:
  Visit the InfoCenter on the app to choose how and which phone numbers should receive non-urgent messages.

• One-Time Consent:
  Once you give permission, no further action is required until you decide to update your settings.

• Real-Time Access:
  Sign in with your registered email (the same one provided to the district) to manage your settings and review up to 30 days of past messages.

Get Started with The District App Appazur

For complete instructions, refer to the attached District Mobile App Parent FAQ, which answers common questions such as:

• What is the App?
  It’s your direct connection to the District Website, PowerSchool, and additional tools like Meal Magic and Stopfinder—a one-stop shop for all district communications.

• How Do I Download or Access the App?
  Download it from the App Store/Play Store or use the web-based view directly via this link.

• Do I Need a Phone?
  No—a web-based app view is available if you prefer not to use a mobile device.

• How Can I Navigate and Update Notification Settings?
  Log in with your registered email, and you can adjust your notification preferences and even opt back in to SMS messages if needed. (For example, if you’ve accidentally deleted a text message invitation, simply text “yes” to 269-778-2288 to rejoin.)

• Additional Support for Dual Accounts:
  If you’re a staff member who is also a parent, you have the option to configure notification settings on your parent account while using your staff account for other district apps.
