School Messenger - Don't forget to "opt-in" to receive emails
Stay connected with your child’s school. Opt in with SchoolMessenger .
Our schools use the SchoolMessenger communication platform to send automated phone calls and emails to parents. We use this system for attendance and emergency messages, as well as for general messages including newsletters and school updates.
Opt in to receive emails
To receive all types of email messages, you must opt in. Otherwise, we will only send you emergency and attendance email messages. (Families with children in our school last year and who had previously provided Canadian Anti-Spam Legislation(CASL) consent will receive General messages.)
You can opt in by creating an account with SchoolMessenger and choosing your contact preferences for each type of message. To receive any emails sent by the school, your preference must be set to “yes” for General Messages. To receive any emails that may be sent by your child's teacher, your preference must be set to “yes” for Teacher-to-Parent Messaging.

1. Go to ocsb.ca/SchoolMessenger to learn how to create your account.
2. Create your account using the email address you provided when you registered your child for school.
3. Choose your contact preferences for each type of message. Have questions? If you are having difficulty creating your parent account, please email the OCSB at School.Messenger@ocsb.ca
