HomeworkNOW.com Offers Free Websites and Communication Tools to Parent Teacher Associations (PTA) and Parent Teacher Organizations (PTO)
STRATHAM, N.H. --(Business Wire)-- HomeworkNOW.com, a leading provider of online K-12 school-to-home communication services, today announced it is offering free HomeworkNOW.com accounts to all parent teacher associations (PTA) and parent teacher organizations (PTO) in North America.
The free service gives those organizations the ability to easily and securely create a web presence and post their PTA/PTO information and files on HomeworkNOW.com's school information network. The information is then accessible 24/7 to students and parents to view and interact with via web browser, mobile phone and more.
A major time saving feature is the website template that is used in the creation of the new PTA/PTO website. When the PTA/PTO organization creates an account on HomeworkNOW, a best practice template of pages, based on recommendations from leading PTA/PTO organizations, are automatically created. (Pages include: About Us, Announcements, Board Members, Bylaws, Fun Stuff, Upcoming Meetings, Meeting Minutes, Newsletter, and Volunteer Acknowledgements.)
An additional benefit is the automatic linkage between PTA/PTO sites and their school HomeworkNOW.com sites (if their school uses HomeworkNOW.com school-to-home communication services). If their school does not use HomeworkNOW, parents and students can still easily view the information online at MY.HomeworkNOW.com or via mobile device at MOBILE.HomeworkNOW.com and even subscribe to receive automatic updates via email or mobile text message when there are PTA/PTO updates.
"For over 12 years we have proudly helped teachers and school admins keep parents proactively connected to their schools," commented Nick Rago, HomeworkNOW.com Managing Director. "We are so pleased to extend our offering, and give Parent Teacher Associations and Organizations a place where they can easily create a web presence and make their vital group information more accessible to students and parents."
Authorized representatives of Parent Teacher Associations and Organizations should visit http://www.homeworknow.com/try to register their organization for a free account.
