FAQs

How do I opt out?

Do one of the following:
1. Text “STOP” to 978338
2. Contact your school to have your number added to the blocked number block list

Can the text messages come from a Division phone number, instead of the SchoolMessenger short code?

No. Short codes are the industry standard, and the only fast and reliable way to deliver mass text notifications.

I “Opted-In”, but I’m not receiving texts?

2. Send a text with “Y” to 978338. You should get an opt-in confirmation message.
