Call-Em-All offers an automated phone notification service to help schools improve communication with teachers, students, and parents. Effective communication can be challenging as families have different preferred methods and not all check email regularly. Print newsletters can also get lost or be costly. Call-Em-All provides an affordable solution to send messages via phone. One school found the service considerably less expensive than others and has been able to efficiently and effectively communicate using Call-Em-All's automated phone messaging. The service can be used for notifications about school cancellations/delays, emergencies, schedule changes, substitute requests, absences, meetings, and voting reminders.
