IMPORTANT: CUSD 10 Will TEST Our Emergency Communication System on November 11
Posted Date: 11/09/26 (12:45 PM)
We will conduct a test of our emergency communication system this Wednesday, November 11, 2026. (Please note: school is not in session that day due to the Veterans Day holiday.) This districtwide notification will provide an opportunity to confirm all families and staff receive an urgent communication, and allow everyone to experience a sample emergency message.
Urgent alerts will override all notification preferences, and will be sent via text, voice, email and app notification.
If you do not receive a message on Wednesday, November 11, families should notify their child(ren)’s school and check their contractability; Staff should make sure their personal contact information is up-to date in Skyward.
Ways to Ensure You Receive Communications:
- Make sure your contact information is up-to-date. Log-in to Skyward Family Access or contact your child's school to check your contact information (emails, phone numbers, etc.)
- Consider downloading the free ParentSquare app (information attached) to improve and streamline how you receive school communications.
- Make sure notifications are not blocked or going to SPAM. Check your spam folder for emails from donotreply@parentsquare.com. Add the domain ParentSquare.com or the email address donotreply@parentsquare.com to the safe senders list in your email.
-
Make sure the number(s) are not blocked on your phone. Under Blocked Senders, select 618-346-6350, and then select Unblock. OR text the word START to 66458. This will resume text messaging to your phone. If this doesn't work, you can text START to 1-833-560-2445.
