PEACHJAR FLYER DISTRIBUTION SYSTEM

Peachjar for Families

We are excited to share information about our partnership with Peachjar to help us unite schools, parents, and communities in our collective mission to elevate student outcomes! Peachjar’s platform streamlines school-to-home communication by distributing valuable school and community resources directly to families as digital flyers. By enabling our district to go paperless, Peachjar helps us save thousands of trees each year.

Peachjar organizes all important school and community information in one place! In addition to receiving emails from your school, look for the ‘Peachjar’ button or icon on your school website to view all active flyers.

Invitations to join peachjar and set up a parent portal are automatically sent to parents on our Infinite Campus email list. If you have not received a invitation, please check your INFINITE CAMPUS PARENT PORTAL to ensure that your information is updated.

Peachjar for Community Organizations

Our district wants families to know about district-approved community programs and resources offered by organizations like yours! Peachjar charges a fee for this service, which is typically much less than the cost to copy and deliver paper flyers. There are many additional benefits to using Peachjar—clickable buttons that take parents directly to your website, flyer performance reports, and not to mention the time saved driving school to school! 

To submit your flyer for district approval, review our FLYER APPROVAL GUIDELINES, and follow the steps below. Paper flyers from outside organizations will no longer be distributed.

        Register your account as a Community Organization on Peachjar.com

        Go to Send & Post Flyer to Submit your flyer for approval

Waterford USD is launching a new mobile app to help students, parents, and community members know what is happening on campus from their phones. Most families use their phones as a primary means of communication, so we've created an app that is custom-built to your school for smartphones. On the app, your students, parents, and community can read the latest announcements, locate staff contact information, review upcoming events, and find important documents. The Waterford USD app is available to download free from the Apple App Store or the Google Play store.

Three Main Benefits:

1. Stay up-to-date with school announcements

2. Learn about upcoming events

3. Access needed contact information quickly

Personalization:

Our app allows you to customize your preferences to select which school sites you want to see news and information from. When you open the App, navigate to the bottom of the menu and select "settings" to personalize which schools you receive information from.

Notifications:

Follow the directions (left) to ensure that you have notifications turned ON for the district and your preferred school site(s). We send important announcements and safety updates by push notification through the app, so we encourage families to adjust your settings to receive notifications.

Using Waterford USD Social Media

The district has numerous social media platforms to promote community involvement and collaboration. The purpose of these platforms is to further the district's vision and mission, support student learning and staff professional development, and enhance communication with students, parents/guardians, staff, and community members. Users are expected to use these sites only for their intended purposes, and any content that is against our policies will be removed, and disciplinary or legal action taken as necessary. An official district social media platform is a site authorized by the Superintendent or designee. Sites that have not been authorized by the Superintendent or designee but that contain content related to the district or comments on district operations, such as a site created by a parent-teacher organization, booster club, or other school-connected organization or a student's or employee's personal site, are not considered official district social media platforms.

Please review our social media policy and familiarize yourself with our rules and expectations for our social media pages.
