Description

eJucomm is a way for teachers and parents to utilize modern technology to increase involvement and engagement in schools. They have created a native app for the iPhone and Android platforms that will allow schools, instructors and parents to interact in near real-time.

eJucomm can be used in just about every facet of the teacher/student relationship. The app, named "Family Kinex", has pre-programmed buttons that will display information about the students' classwork, school events, clubs, etc. It also allows the parent to e-mail or chat with teachers or administrators to get up to the second information on what's going on at the school.

• Parents section houses tools so they can keep abreast of student and school activity
• Students section that includes class schedules, assignment info and school activities
• Social media section that includes an RSS feed of school and district news
• Athletics and Clubs section for schedules and results
• Access to the district grading portal
• E-mail client for contacting teachers

eJucomm creates a customized app for each district that utilizes their service. As the district identifies new points of interest that should be included, eJucomm will rebuild the app and it will be rolled out to them
