Communications

The District's website shaker.org offers a wealth of information for students and parents, from curriculum to library resources to financial data and a staff directory. Visit often to find out what’s happening.

 

The District is also active on social media. Follow us on the channels below:

The weekly eNews includes a news and event roundup for the District as well as each individual school building. Families automatically receive these newsletters to the email address on file with the District for automated communications. Shaker Heights Schools supporters who are not current families may subscribe to newsletters here. Each eNews is also available online at www.shaker.org/weeklyenews.aspx.

All community members may sign up to receive ongoing Facilities Update emails containing information about the District’s long-term facilities plan. Click here to receive long-term facilities plan updates. (Current staff and families automatically these receive emails.)

The District uses SchoolMessenger to call, email and text Shaker families with building- and District-level updates, as well as emergency, closure and delay information. With SchoolMessenger, the District has the capability to send the following messages via the methods listed below:

 

At the beginning of the school year, families will be invited to update their student and contact information online. This ensures the District has the most up-to-date information for student records, enabling teachers and administrators to contact you. Throughout the year, report any change in your address, phone number or e-mail address to your building's administrative assistant or to the Registration Office. Email Glo Morris at [email protected] or call 295-4321.

PowerSchool provides students and families with access to important and useful information that is specific to your student(s). New families will receive an email that includes student-specific instructions on how to set up and log in to your PowerSchool account.

The Shaker Heights City School District delivers flyers to PreK-6 students in accordance with its Flyer Distribution Process. Please refer to the Flyer Distribution webpage for more information and to submit a flyer for distribution approval.

All requests to view public records should be sent to the District’s Office of the Treasurer. Please contact Jennifer Hillman, Senior Executive Assistant, at [email protected] or 216-295-4316.
