Board approves consent agenda, moves to purchase unified parent‑communication platform
Summary
The board approved the consent agenda and a district plan to phase in a unified parent‑communication platform (Thrillshare) and associated professional development; staff said the initial implementation contract would not exceed $8,000.
The Quillayute Valley School District board approved its consent agenda by voice vote and discussed next steps to unify parent communications on a single platform. Staff described a phased transition to Thrillshare (the district’s chosen communication tool) and a related professional‑development package for staff; the amount described in the meeting was "not to exceed $8,000."
District staff said Thrillshare will replace multiple channels (email, ClassDojo, Remind) over time to reduce duplicate messages and to create a record of teacher‑family contacts. A staff member said teachers log outreach in a Google Sheet so the district can track which families have been contacted and whether follow‑up is needed. Board members approved the consent items with a routine voice vote and no named opposition.
