 | Winter has officially arrived! Don't forget that you can register to receive text alerts on your cell phone when there are weather-related delays and cancellations in The Punxsutawney Area School District. Scroll down near the bottom of the announcements section here and follow the directions to register with Schoolreach if you have not already done so. (Remember: even if you registered last year, you will need to complete a new registration for this school year.) |

| Click HERE for more important details and to register. Last year the District adopted SchoolReach as our telephone notification system. SchoolReach is used for school delay/closing notifications as well as for attendance and other important notification events. All registrations received during the 2010-2011 school year will be purged from the system; therefore, it is important to complete the registration survey in order to receive notification for the 2011-2012 school year. All information and contact numbers are strictly secure and confidential and are only used for the purposes described. When used, the service will call all phone numbers in our selected contact lists and will deliver a voice or text message from a school administrator. The problem with Verizon Wireless cell phones not receiving text messages has been corrected; therefore, school closing and delay information will only be sent by text message. Parents, students, and staff should not rely on SchoolReach as the only means of notification about school closings and delays. We will announce school closings on: If time permits, we will also notify: · WTAJ - TV (Channel 10) - Altoona · WJAC - TV ( Channel 6) – Johnstown · WTAE – TV (Channel 4) – Pittsburgh · WPSU - TV (Channel 3) - Penn State · WPSU - Radio (91.5 FM) - Penn State · WOWQ - Radio (102.1 FM) – DuBois · WDSN – Radio (106.5 FM) - DuBois · WQYX – Radio (93.1 FM) - Clearfield · WMKX - Radio (105.5 FM) - Brookville · WFGY - Radio (98.1 FM) - Altoona |
