GroupMe
Please download an App called GroupMe. It is a free messaging app that we will use. There is a chat group for Students and one for Parents. This is for COACHES/Teachers and Boosters to get information out to students and parents and is not a free for all chat room. It is monitored by teachers/boosters at all times. Everything should be school appropriate and is not meant to be used for anything other than getting information out.
