KELSO SCHOOL DISTRICT APP

app

The Kelso School District app makes being in the know so much easier. It has a live feed you can customize to get news from any or all schools and/or the district. You can also find teachers and staff within the app and call or email them with a click, and find events of interest, academic resources, forms, bus routes, and so much more. Available for Android and iPhone.

To sign up for notifications on the App: 

Go to Settings > Turn on Notifications > Then click on the school/building(s) you would like to receive notifications from.

IMPORTANT - Make sure you have the most up to date version of the App.

SKYWARD STUDENT INFORMATION SYSTEM

Skyward is the system we use for storing student information. It is through this system that we are able to send mail, email, phone calls, and text messages to guardians.  

It is incredibly important for many reasons that you keep your school secretaries informed of any changes to your contact information (address, phone number, email, etc.) . Please go into Skyward and update your contact information or call your student's school secretary.

TEXT MESSAGES
