The key is to make sure that your phone numbers are valid.

Parents: Each student has one (1) Primary Caregiver listed in the School Information System, this is the individual in which that student resides with on a typical Monday thru Friday basis when school is in session. SASD will contact the one (1) home phone number and up to two (2) cell phone numbers for emergencies. If the student(s) are with a Temporary Caregiver on any typical Monday thru Friday when school is in session, it is the responsibility of the Temporary Caregiver to obtain the information about school closings. SASD offers multiple paths to accomplish this.

The Temporary Caregiver can log on to the SASD Home Page at http://www.sayresd.org/default.asp, watch WETM18 , WSKG, News Channel 34, WBNG 12, News 10 Now, WNEP 16, or listen to Wats 960AM & WAVR102.1FM, Lite Rock 107, Wiggle 100.3AM & 102.9FM, Wink 106,Magic 101.7. The Caregiver will be responsible for finding which of the above TV or Radio stations they receive within their home(s).

Phone numbers provided cannot be automated systems. What this means is if you provide a phone number that is answered by an automation machine (Press 1 for Sales, Press 2 for Customer Support, etc) One Call Now WILL NOT go through.

If you are not able to answer the phone(s) and your voice mail/answering machine answers, the recording starts as soon as the system recognizes a human voice. This means that if you have a long outgoing message, you may not actually hear anything on your voice mail/answering machine. If this happens, please use one of the above methods to confirm if school is closed or on a delay.

We are currently not able to send text messages to cell phones.

If you have recently changed any of your contact information (phone numbers & email address), please email this information to the appropriate school:

High School = GroupHSOneCallNow@sayresd.org

Elementary = GroupElemOneCallNow@sayresd.org

The email must include the following information or it will not be accepted:

Student Name, School that the student attends (Litchfield, Snyder or High School), Complete information on contact i.e. Full Name, Relationship to student, Phone number including area code, what type of phone is this (home or cell).
