Gone are the days of downloading a new app each time your child joins a new class or school activity. Rooms will be the hub for it all right inside the USD 495 app (where you can still keep up with district-wide news, calendars, and menus). The teachers and staff in our district have worked hard to prepare this powerful tool for our families. Rooms will give you a digital look into what's going on in your child's classroom and remove the divide between school and home. Teachers and staff will post weekly announcements and have general information and materials for their class posted. Families will be able to direct message their child's teacher in the same spot. Is english not your first language? Rooms will translate for you!
We have a goal of getting 90% of our families signed up for Rooms TODAY, Friday, September 1st. Your registration link should be in the inbox associated with your Skyward account. Comment below when you have registered and we will randomly draw a name for a prize on Tuesday, September 5th! #larnedpride #lesfamily

If your business or group is interested in hosting a Hi5 Friday, please contact Tina Gladow at LES at 620-285-2141 or tina.gladow@usd495.com
