Principal's Weekly Update 1/15/16

News from our Director of Technology, Dr. Karen Soanes
Bloomfield CSD now has a district app available for Android and iOS devices. If you open this email on your smartphone or tablet clicking on the link below will take you to the app store and install the app otherwise you can search for the app under East Bloomfield CSDin the app stores. The athletics practice and game schedule loads very nicely on the app. The lunch menu, upcoming events, and news stories all feed into the app. For students and parents there are direct links to myschoolbucks and the IC portal. I think the IC portal app still works better but this is another option. I'm putting up a news announcement on the district webpage and will have fliers for classrooms next week.
If you enable push notifications on your device and allow push notifications for the app you can get alerts (like snow days, emergency closings etc....) on the app.
