Alabaster City Schools (ACS) is gearing up for a digital transformation with Apptegy, a leader in K12 custom apps and digital communication tools. Throughout the past school year, ACS has been implementing Apptegy's suite of products to revolutionize how the district communicates with students, parents, and staff.
A cornerstone of this initiative is "Rooms," Apptegy's innovative app-based platform designed to simplify communication between parents and schools. By the 2024-2025 school year, Rooms will replace multiple existing platforms, offering a unified solution for accessing class updates, assignments, and teacher communications.
In addition to Rooms, ACS has launched a new mobile app powered by Apptegy, available for free download on both Apple and Android devices. This comprehensive app consolidates cafeteria menus, news updates, calendars, and more into one convenient interface. Users can personalize notifications based on their preferences across ACS campuses.
Furthermore, ACS has migrated all district websites to Apptegy's platform, ensuring a seamless and user-friendly experience across all devices. The new websites prioritize accessibility with built-in A.D.A. Compliance, ensuring inclusivity for all users.
To enhance emergency communication, ACS has transitioned to Apptegy's "ALERTS" feature, enabling rapid dissemination of school alerts via text messages, voice calls, social media, and other channels. This streamlined approach will integrate seamlessly with the new ACS mobile app and websites.
