As we prepare for the start of the 24/25 school year, we would like to inform you that the main communication platform Volusia County Schools uses for all school- and district-based communication has changed as of July 1. The district communication platform, originally known as SchoolMessenger, will now be run through Focus Communications, which is built within our current Student Information System (SIS). The transition to this new platform to deliver mass communications will provide Volusia County Schools many additional features to enhance our ability to communicate with you. Please be aware that all parent accounts are defaulted to an ‘opt in’ status meaning the custodial contacts of students will receive emails, calls, and texts from Volusia County Schools until the parent chooses to ‘opt out’ by responding to the prompts of the call/text/email or by notifying the school registrar of your desire to ‘opt out’. Staying 'opted in' to messages will ensure you receive important information from your child's school and the district. Since this tool is used for important communications to you, it is critical that we have accurate contact information for you and your students. As a result, an online Student Contact Update form will be delivered to your Focus parent portal. You will be notified once this is available. This will give you the opportunity to review and update all contact information. If you do not yet have a Focus Parent Portal account, it is imperative that you set one up as soon as possible using the instructions located at vcsedu.org/portals. If you have questions, you may contact the ITS Help Desk at (386) 734-7190 x25000. If you did not receive the TEST communication via text and email please check your spam folder or contact the ITS Help Desk at (386) 734-7190 x25000.

🚀✨ Horizon Elementary just wrapped up their first ever STEAM Camp & it was a blast! Students dove into fun, hands-on projects, merging academics with the arts. This unique experience allowed them to ask big questions, solve problems, and become creative thinkers. @HorizonElem89
