Coming Soon! Our New Communication App

Message Body:
Good day families,

We are excited to announce that we’ll be using a new communication tool called ReachWell starting on [LAUNCH DATE]! We’re switching platforms because ReachWell allows us to communicate with you in your language, and it will serve as a hub with all important information. This will be our go-to spot for all communication with all staff members this year.

On ReachWell, you’ll be able to:
  1. Receive translated announcements and be able to chat with staff in your language.
  2. Access resources like calendars, forms, and other tools.
All important information will be posted on the app, so please keep an eye out for an email and text on [LAUNCH DATE] with download instructions.

We are excited to communicate with you through ReachWell!

Sincerely,

[NAME]
