OneCall

Tue, 09 Feb 2010 12:35:00 GMT

Many schools closed at about the same time this morning - around 6am. That means that there were probably hundreds of thousands of calls going out simultaneously out of NW Ohio. Please use one of our many backups to OneCall to ensure you are notified of a school closing or delay: subscribe to the text alerts , follow us on twitter , join our facebook, or monitor WLKR, or any of the local TV stations, all of which had the info promptly.

OneCall has been a wonderful communications tool for us, but unfortunately sometimes technology is just ahead of infrastructure :(

Wed, 06 Jan 2010 13:31:00 GMT

Due to the icy roads and unpredictable weather pattern, Monroeville Local Schools and St. Joseph Schools are closed today, Wednesday, January 6. We are aware of a problem with OneCall, it appears to only be calling about half of our homes. Please bear with us while we attempt to correct the problem. Please monitor WLKR radio or TV for any updated information. You can also sign up for text alerts on our home page.

Twitter

Wed, 02 Dec 2009 18:22:00 GMT

I have become extremely fond of Twitter as a way to send out messages and reminders. What is Twitter? According to wikipedia, Twitter is a free social-networking and micro-blogging service that enables its users to send and read messages known as tweets. Tweets are text-based posts of up to 140 characters displayed on the author's profile page and delivered to the author's subscribers who are known as followers. Senders can restrict delivery to those in their circle of friends or, by default, allow open access. Users can send and receive tweets via the Twitter website, Short Message (SMS) or external applications. While the service itself costs nothing to use, accessing it through SMS may incur phone service fees. It is very easy to subscribe using a computer or an internet-enabled cell phone. Messages are then "pushed" out to your device of choice. It is a great way for the school to communicate upcoming events, news, and other issues of interest to the community. So what are you waiting for? You can go to twitter.com and create a free account, and can view our twitter feed at http://twitter.com/mville_eagles. You could also add our feed to Google reader or your favorite RSS Client here: https://twitter.com/statuses/friends_timeline/78865368.rss
