Post-to-Web: Consistent Info Everywhere for Everyone

Kunsmiller Creative Arts Academy (Denver Public Schools K-12 ) works hard to keep its elementary and secondary community informed with relevant information. This means pulling information from multiple departments and posting it across multiple platforms to make sure the message gets through and their community is always informed.

While most families preferred the app, neighbors, prospective families and alumni referenced the website. Staff preferred email and a few liked texting and calling.

This relied on one staff member to update their website while another posted on ReachWell to translate information for families via the app, email, text, and call. When the website manager went on maternity leave they knew they would need to train someone to replace that task. With already strained resources backfilling, tackling this additional responsibility in the middle of a busy school year was daunting.

Fortunately, ReachWell’s post-to-web feature was released in time to completely eliminate this task. One person sends one message, and it updates multiple platforms at once, including the website! Because ReachWell segments messages for families based on classrooms and grades, their website was even easier to navigate as secondary and elementary maintained their distinct newsfeeds (without the front office sending multiple messages).

Schools no longer need to log into multiple platforms to make sure they cast a wide net, ensuring all families are connected to essential updates. It’s easier than ever to send updates in multiple ways, all in one place.

How it works

1. It’s quick and easy to keep your website easily updated.

2. Request post-to-web for your site and receive non-technical instructions to add the website widget to your site. This typically takes about five minutes.

3. School-wide messages sent to families on ReachWell will translate into over 100 languages and post on both the app and a website news feed, no web design skills required! That same message can also be translated and delivered via email, text, and voice call from the same page.

4. Click to send, and you’re keeping families informed in five ways! Families can easily choose their preferred communication method so that you don’t have to guess which method is best for all families.
