Deer Valley Unified School District Mass Notification Sytem
The District and our schools sends out communication via a mass notification tool. All parents/guardians can receive emails, calls and texts from their schools or the district.
If you didn’t receive the email, please check your email’s Spam and/or Junk folders. We understand that some of the emails from DVUSD maybe going into junk or spam folders, especially for gmail users.
To fix this problem with a GMail account, follow the steps below:- Log in to your GMail account
- Locate your spam folder (on the left side of your Gmail account where you see inbox, etc)
- In the spam folder, find a message from DVUSD, your student's teacher, school etc.
- Open the message
- Click on the three vertical dots along the top of your message with other icons (next to the the star, arrow icon, clock icon, etc)
- Click on "filter messages like these/this"
- In the from field type @dvusd.org
- Click "Create Filter"
- Check the box "never send to spam"
- Click "Create Filter"
*Note: Messages received prior to this being set up will not automatically move to your inbox. Process will be similar for other email systems
DVUSD's Information Technology & Services Department along with the notification system company is continuing to fine-tune this system and will likely run future tests to ensure all parents are receiving important messages from schools and the district.
Please note: If you unsubscribe from an email from either a teacher, school or the district, you will NOT receive future emails from your child’s teacher, school AND the district.
