Prepare students for the upcoming school year by sending them back-to-school text messages to ensure everyone’s registered and knows what to expect as the school year approaches.
According to statistics, over 50% of kids over the age of 11 own a smartphone. Additionally, texting provides the opportunity to benefit from the 98% open rate. This makes using a text messaging service for schools make that much more sense.
It is also advantageous that texting is the preferred communication method for students. That is particularly true for Generation Z and the current teenagers who use texting to communicate with each other more than other forms of communication.
20 back-to-school messaging templates
Getting students back to school has had a number of challenges over the years, but in the last year, changes in teaching techniques, such as distance learning have caused back-to-school duties to be much more difficult for students, administrators, and parents.
Back-to-school text campaigns can help promote awareness about the start of school. Regardless of changing information, back-to-school messaging campaigns are an effective way to get everybody back in the groove of school. Identify several methods to get your story across using text. Cloud Contact AI provides a user friendly interface to make texting for schools easier than ever before.
