BEDFORD - OCTOBER 26, 2022 - North Lawrence Community School launched a new Mobile app.
The latest news and information from schools in NLCS are now available on smartphones and mobile devices with a new mobile app launched today. NLCS is expanding its communications outreach with a mobile app that is now available in the online iTunes® and Google Play® app stores for FREE.
The NLCS mobile app will offer a constantly updated feed of district news and events
with photos and links to the district’s (mobile responsive) website. The app can also
be customized by the user by selecting the schools they are most interested in for
news and updates. Users can also choose to receive push notifications to get
breaking news and updates about school closures, calendar changes, or even sports
updates.
“We know that our students are more successful in schools when parents are
engaged in their learning and school activities,” said Lucas Calhoun, of North
Lawrence Community Schools. “With our new mobile app, parents and community
members can stay connected with our local schools and with the activities our
students are engaged in everyday.”
The district partnered with Schoolwires® to develop the Mobile Communications App.
The app is integrated with the district website and allows principals and district staff to
add and edit website content or create alerts using their smartphones.
According to the Pew Research Internet Project in 2013, 91% of Americans have
mobile phones and 60% use them to access the Internet and 50% download apps.
And those numbers are going up every year. With the NLCS mobile app, school news
and information is now even more accessible to school families and the public.
Parents and the public are encouraged to download this free mobile app to their
smartphones at: iTunes App Store:
