Broaddus ISD Communication App Reminder
Parents and guardians should have received an invitation link by text message to join our school communication platform. Currently, only 40% of the parents and guardians listed in Ascender have accepted invitations.
Participation is voluntary, but we strongly encourage you to accept the invitation so you can stay informed about important school news, announcements, events, and updates.
Once you accept, simply use the Broaddus ISD app to access the platform. You will receive notifications or text messages for new posts based on the notification settings you select in the app.
Please check your text messages and accept your invitation today!
(Note from IT Department: “I have found the reason why some parents didn’t receive an invite. The most common issue occurs when parents have multiple children registered and there are differences in the parent's contact information that was entered for each student, such as a name change, spelling error, different email address, etc. These inconsistencies cause an error and prevent the parent from being synced. We now have the full error logs, which show us everyone whose information needs to be updated. We will be working throughout this week to make those updates and will periodically resend invitations. There are a lot of changes that need to be made, so please bear with us. Thank you for your understanding!”)

Today, Broaddus ISD experienced an unintended activation of the district’s emergency lockdown system. An emergency lockdown key fob was found at the high school and inadvertently used on a security keypad, activating the lockdown system.
At no time was there an actual emergency or threat to our students, staff, or campus. District administration and law enforcement personnel were notified, the situation was quickly assessed, and the lockdown was promptly cleared once it was determined that there was no threat.
We understand that an unexpected lockdown notification can cause concern for our families and community. The safety and security of our students and staff remains our highest priority. We appreciate everyone’s patience and cooperation as we continue to review the incident and ensure our emergency procedures and security systems are functioning as intended.
Thank you for your continued support of Broaddus ISD.
Dear Parents,
Broaddus ISD has some exciting news to announce. We are very close to enabling our messaging app. Currently. invites are planned to be sent out this afternoon around 3-5pm (assuming no issues prevent it). The invite should go out as a text message. This is just to give a heads up to be looking out for text message inviting you to the app. It goes by a few names: Apptegy, Rooms, or Connect but you'll access it via the same Broaddus ISD app we've always had. Links to our school app (if you don't already have it) can be at the bottom of our website at https://www.broaddusisd.com/.
Info you can reference when it goes live this afternoon:
