Mayfield Independent School District Launches The Cardinal App -
A New App to Transform Communication for Students and Families
Mayfield Independent Schools announced today the launch of The Cardinal App which is now available to download on iOS™, Android™, and Windows™ devices. The school app gives parents, students, faculty, and staff the ability to stay connected and informed about what’s happening at Mayfield Schools. Administrators can now easily distribute unified messages from the app for both emergency text alerts and day-to-day school communication.
Mayfield Independent Superintendent Billy Edwards is excited about the new parent communication app and what it will mean for the community. “Improving student learning outcomes is the top priority of Mayfield Independent. We know that parent and family engagement is one of the biggest factors in student success, and our new app will allow parents to easily connect with our staff. From in-app translations to push notifications for urgent messages, we know this will be an impactful addition to our communication,” he said.
“Another benefit of The Cardinal App is that it complies with SB181, the new student digital communications bill, as a traceable form of communication,” said Edwards. “From traceable communications, urgent messages, to the day-to-day news, documents, and forms, this app will save time and improve communication for families, students, and staff.”
The Cardinal App, by SchoolInfo, is free and provides parents, students, and staff with immediate access to everything school-related including calendars, directions to events, contact information for teachers and administrators, important documents, cafeteria menus, and more. The school communication app will simplify communication from all three schools as well as from the school district, giving personalized information to users, right from their phones when they need it.
Parents and guardians should have received an invitation sent to the email address that is connected to the school. During Online Registration, whatever email was entered, that is the email account connected to the Cardinal App. More information can be found on The Cardinal App page on the district website at www.mayfield.kyschools.us.
