Communications & Engagement is also responsible for building partnerships with our neighbors throughout the Kyrene community. We encourage businesses and organizations interested in supporting Kyrene schools to visit our Community pages.
Digital Media
Communications & Engagement has oversight of the Kyrene School District website and social media channels. We additionally provide support for school websites and school Facebook accounts.
Family Communication
The primary role of the Communications & Engagement team is to ensure Kyrene families and employees are informed of important news, programs and decisions that impact our students and staff. Kyrene communicates with families through the use of SchoolMessenger, which automatically enrolls parents for school and District emails as well as emergency alert calls. Both families and staff can also sign up for text message alerts by texting "Y" or "yes" to 67587.
