Not Receiving School Messages?

Lewis Central uses the BrightArrow notification system to send important information to families through phone calls, emails and text messages. This includes, but is not limited to, snow day messages! If you have received text messages previously then you are already set up. If you haven’t already done so, please take a moment to complete the simple opt-in process for text messaging below. We will only use the text messaging service to provide information that is timely and relevant for you and your student.

The opt-in process is simple and only takes a few seconds to complete.

  1. Simply text YES to the number 79041.
  2. You will know that you were successful if you receive the following reply message: “You are subscribed with Lewis Central Schools. Text STOP to cancel or HELP for information." If you receive an error message, it is likely that you must contact your carrier to enable text messaging.
  3. To opt out of all text messages from BrightArrow, reply with STOP to the opt-in message.

If you are uncertain as to whether or not you have already opted in, simply repeat the opt-in process above. There is no harm in sending the opt-in message more than once.

When parents provide a new wireless number to the school (common at the beginning of the school year), you may receive a text message requesting that you opt in to receive important information via text message. The message you receive will be similar to the following: "Lewis Central would like to continue sending you text messages. To receive these messages, please reply YES." Again, we encourage you to reply YES.

If you have any questions please feel free to contact your students' school office.
