Your COVID-19 Checklist

With the spread of Coronavirus, students, families, and staff are impacted by the uncertainty of school closures. We at Flyer Connect have been blown away by the rapid response we’ve seen from our partnering schools and organizations. From their activities, we have compiled an emergency response checklist.

To get tips for responding to COVID-19, as well as important Flyer Connect updates, add the “Flyer Academy” school to your app.

Flyer Connect’s Recommended COVID-19 Response Checklist

Schedule messages to keep connected

• We are all feeling lonely, scared, and anxious, which means families want to hear from you. Send at least three messages a week to keep them informed, with the added benefit of giving families a sense of connection while isolated.
• Schedule out your messages in advance, including where food is available during school closures, what activities they can do to support learning at home, or how to keep entertained while everyone is staying home. Flyer Academy on the app will share content ideas of what you can send to your families.

Add a COVID-19 Resources tile to the resources tab of the app
