Create Announcements

Announcements provide a way to announce upcoming events, the daily school bulletin, district happenings, etc. Any user that logs into the Campus application will see the Announcements. Portal users can also view Announcements if the district so chooses. These communications can be created as District Announcements or as School Announcements.
