In this technology-driven world, everything is instant; instant food, instant transactions, instant bookings, instant purchases and instant communications. Earlier what took days, weeks or months for processing now takes hours or minutes. Such is the evolution of technology in the past few years that changed the face of living. Over the years, there has been none who was not influenced by this transition, schools were not an exception too. When talking about a school, the vital factor that is required to ensure a smooth running of a school is communication, and an effective communication between schools and families is the necessity to keep parents in the loop. With the evolving technology, schools started looking for an instant communication platform to interact with parents on a regular basis. Catering the need of all such schools that are in search of an instant communication channel, MyClassboard furnishes MySchoolSMS as its premium product that makes communication easier and better.
Over the decade, schools were using telephones as a communication platform to contact parents. However, it might not always be possible for parents to answer the phone calls every time in this busy world. Moreover, schools had some important notifications concerning the behaviour of students, attendance, performance and other classroom related activities that need to be communicated to parents instantly. Eventually, many schools started looking for an instant communication platform to interact with parents and the only way through which information sharing can be instant is through an SMS. MySchoolSMS is an effective and easy messenger tool that acts as a connecting bridge and also as a reminder system between parents and teachers, making communication interactive.
