Arthur Lovington Atwood Hammond school board members learned more about, Apptegy during a regular meeting where the annual budget was approved.
A live meeting with one of its techs, Casey, via Google, revealed information about how the app could benefit the district.
The Apptegy tech demonstrated a live working app that the Arcola School District had in place.
Presently, Apptegy has 100,000 districts in the U.S using the app and an estimate of 128 school districts in Illinois. The main purpose of the app is to promote stories and events that are happening in the school district. Apptegy is designed to make it simple for parents and students to navigate all in one place, creating a much more streamlined appearance.
It will be free to download for anyone who has a smart phone or tablet device. Board members noted that there were already high school staff that are interested in integrating some students in with the app to start helping out with it and promoting events and various organizations.     Login or Subscribe to read the rest of this story.
