Houston County School District

Oh my…this app is awful. Buggy, closes all the time with no warning, and is now claiming that I need to update it when there is no update available. Houston County, please let us go back to Class Dojo (yes, even middle schools and high schools)! This app isn’t it. The idea was great but the execution has frankly sucked.

This app is a wonderful idea. I believe this app could be everything parents and teachers want it to be. It just needs better organizing. A way of understanding the app without the school walking you through it. Some of my personal pet peeves are no time stamps on the messages. I have teachers answer questions that I sent last week. Sometimes earlier in the day after they posted the answer. I don’t feel all my messages make it to the teachers either. Some questions go unanswered. Whether that’s the app, or the teacher it’s highly frustrating. I’d like to see a title beside some of the people listed. For messaging options. It would be nice if you could see, “nurse, principal, teacher aide, teacher, music teacher.” So on. It would help parents a lot. I also wish there was a better posting system. I see the same post… in maybe 3 or 4 locations. I like the announcements or upcoming events section for schools, but the bell icon being the location for that is a bit off. Maybe make it its own section. Use the bell icon for the parents children instead. Such as their class, messages, or something specific to that child/children. I want to address some of these post should be able to have comments left on them as well. Parents as a collective usually have the same questions. It’s easier for one person to comment a question and have it answered versus all of us messaging the child’s teacher after a post. This app has problems. It’s new. I understand that, but if you’re using this for all of Houston county’s schools. It just seems like it’s lacking the proper effort put into it. Please keep working hard and listening to us. This app genuinely drives me crazy sometimes. Especially when teachers just don’t reply.

I don’t see a thing entitled “Rooms”. Hard to enroll in my granddaughter room or whatever if I can’t find the place to do it.
