Dear EPJ Families,
Welcome back! We’re so glad to have your children with us for the 2026–2027 school year!
To keep you informed and involved, we’re continuing to use Rooms, our two-way communication tool that helps you stay connected with your child’s teachers and school staff.
And this year, the experience will be even better.
To get the most out of the new updates, be sure to download or update the Elk Point-Jefferson School App, available in the App Store and Google Play. It’s the easiest way to get messages, announcements, and updates—all in one place, and always in our school’s brand.
What do you need to do to get started?
If you have our Elk Point-Jefferson School App downloaded, please make sure it is updated to the latest version.
Check out this overview of Rooms or watch this short video to refresh yourself on all things Rooms.
We’re here to help make communication simpler, more consistent, and easier to manage, so you never miss a moment in your child’s school experience.
Here’s to a great year ahead!
Best,
Philip Schonebaum
