It's 6 a.m. The snow is falling outside. You wonder if today will be a snow day, so you turn on the TV to get the latest school closings...

...but you have to wait, because they just finished scrolling through all the schools that start with 'B.'

Sound familiar? If so, consider using School News Notifier.

The 231 (and counting) users currently signed up for BKW's  SNN service know whether school is closed or delayed BEFORE the announcement shows up on TV. SNN users also get the latest district news and events customized by school, Board of Education meeting agendas and minutes and state news that affects the district. They also find out when the district receives word that a sex offender has moved into the neighborhood.

What is SNN? It's an opt-in e-mail alert system that sends out messages from the district to the e-mail in-boxes of parents and residents. Users can choose to receive any or all of BKW's customized SNN alerts, and can unsubscribe at any time. As always, e-mail addresses are kept FULLY CONFIDENTIAL.

Don't get stuck on the couch waiting for the TV to tell you whether school is closed. Continue to the School News Notifier home page to sign up for SNN!
