Rapid Communication System – Instant Connect
The rapid communication system allows District #11 to call the primary guardian for each child in a variety of weather and emergency situations. In a true crisis, the system will allow the district to call every phone number associated with a student (including emergency contacts). This system links to your student’s record, so if you need to update any information, please contact your school secretaries.

School Closings
If school is closed due to weather or another emergency, District #11 calls every staff member and parent through the rapid communication system. We send notifications to every email we have on file and we post closings on the district website. If there is no information on the website, school is open. If an emergency occurs during the day, District 11’s rapid communication system will call and email every contact in your student’s record.
