Communications

We appreciate the support that the Sun Prairie Community gives the School District. We are committed to ensuring that our students, families and community are connected to the work of the district.

The Communications Department is responsible for the district's marketing, public and community relations efforts. The department supports district social media and the website, publishes newsletters, works with the media, provides crisis communication, and organizes community relations events.

District Communication Tools

DISTRICT WEBSITE
Event calendars, resources for families, newsletters, menus, community information and more. Each school has its own website.

INFINITE CAMPUS PARENT PORTAL
Each parent/guardian is granted a Parent Portal account for their children. The portal gives access to grades, assignment due dates, attendance, paying fees, paying food accounts and more.

COMMUNITY NEWSLETTERS
It is important to us to keep the community informed. We offer several newsletters (both mailed and electronic) throughout the year that showcase our staff, our students and the important work being done across the district.

PEACHJAR FLYERS
The District’s electronic flyer system allows flyers to be emailed rather than sent home in a backpack. Families of our students are automatically signed up to receive flyers. Anyone can visit a school’s website, click on the Peachjar icon and view all active flyers.

EMAIL, PHONE OR TEXTS
Families can choose to be contacted via email, phone, voice or text message. In addition to school messaging, we will contact you in emergency situations such as weather closings or building emergencies. Please make sure your information in Infinite Campus is correct to ensure you receive these messages.

GET INVOLVED IN OUR SCHOOLS
Tutor in our schools, attend music and sporting events, volunteer, attend guest artist series and theater events at our Performing Arts Center and use the High School pool during open hours.
