District launches PShare platform to streamline school-to-family and community flyers
Summary
The district launched a platform called PShare (named variably during the presentation) to publish school and community flyers online and send weekly notifications; staff said families were opted in from Infinite Campus data.
YANKTON, S.D. — Curriculum and technology staff told the Yankton School District 63-3 board on Jan. 27 that the district launched a digital bulletin-board platform called PShare to help families and community partners see school flyers and announcements in real time.
Staff said PShare (spelled variably in the presentation) went live that day and district families were automatically opted in using data from Infinite Campus so the district can push a weekly message when a school has new flyers. The platform is available from each school’s web menu under the communications or stay-connected pages and can also be accessed from a district “parents” menu or the community section for partner flyers.
The presenter said PShare will reduce reliance on printed flyers in backpacks and give community partners an avenue to request that a flyer be posted (submissions will be approved by an identified district approver). A board member asked whether the platform is visible to people outside the district considering relocation; staff pointed to the school website menu placement and the stay-connected synopsis as signals for users searching district online information.
Staff did not request formal board action; the item was informational.
The district speaker listed below provided the PShare update; the transcript shows several spellings of the platform name, which the district presenter addressed by explaining where to find it on the website.
