The St. Clair Catholic District School Board is committed to effective, regular and timely communication with parents and guardians in relation to students’ safe arrival to school and attendance.

We are excited to introduce a more efficient student absence management system called SchoolMessenger – SafeArrival.  This system enhances our existing safe arrival and absence processes, while providing quicker, more reliable and consistent notifications to parents and guardians, when unreported student absences occur.

Parents and guardians can use the SchoolMessenger/SM Home app, web portal, or toll-free phone number, to simplify reporting student absences to schools and when responding to unexplained absences.  These communications will now be viewable alongside other broadcast/messages when using the SchoolMessenger/SM Home app.
