📢 Chesapeake Public Schools will be conducting a test of our Parent Alert System on Wednesday, October 16, 2024, after 5:00 p.m. 📢 ⚠️ The purpose is to test all communications channels the district uses to alert families of important information. On Wednesday, October 16, 2024, we will send a TEST message to the contact information we have on file for staff and parents via text, email, phone call, and mobile app. This will allow individuals to ensure they are receiving district and school communications through the correct platforms. We will also post the TEST message to our website and social media accounts. 🎯 Our goal is to ensure we provide accurate, effective communication in a timely manner. To update your emergency contact information, please use the Online Student Verification process through your ParentVue account. If you need additional assistance, please contact your child’s school. 💻For more information about our safety protocols, please visit: https://www.cpschools.com/article/1818081
