EMERGENCY ALERTS
A top priority of the Lampeter-Strasburg School District is keeping parents and guardians informed. Consequently, we use an emergency notification system to initiate phone calls, text messages, and emails that provide important information about school emergencies. In the event of an emergency, parents and guardians can have peace of mind knowing that they will be contacted immediately by phone.
The successful delivery of information is dependent upon accurate emergency contact information for each student, so please ensure that we have your most current contact information. Please let us know immediately if this information changes during the school year.
What you need to know about receiving calls:
- Caller ID will display the school's main number when a general announcement is delivered.
- Caller ID will display 411 if the message is an emergency.
- The system will leave a message on any answering machine or voicemail.
- For weather related events, the system will be used only in the event of an early dismissal. Calls will not be made for delays and cancellations, but text messages will be delivered.
