SMS Text Notification Feature
An FDmail message notification will be sent via TEXT message to
parents' cell phones. Only those who have elected to allow (activated)
the feature will receive the notification because normal cell phone
provider text message fees apply.
SMS technology will strip any HTML code used within the message.
Information sent via text messaging is not secure. Do not include any
sensitive material. FCC regulations apply. Messages retrieved from the
school portal are protected by USER passwords and Secure Socket Layer,
to help ensure the privacy and integrity of information transmitted
