Utica Community Schools Mobile, an app for Michigan’s second largest school district, is now available for a free download on I-Tunes and the Android store.
UCS Mobile was the first K-12 educational app for a Michigan school district when it was released in April, 2012.
The app, which is updated frequently each day, provides news, calendars, school lunch menus, athletic results, contact information and other important information for Utica Community Schools parents, students and residents.

“UCS Mobile is another tool that allows our community to get updated information on our schools at any time,” superintendent Dr. Christine Johns said. “Combined with our other social media sites, our parents and community can get the news they need directly from their phone or tablet.”
The app is available at both the Apple Store and on the Android market for Apple iPhones, iPads and Android phones and tablets.

The app was developed in conjunction with LTGI.net, a provider of online and mobile technology solutions for primary and secondary schools.
“We believe that the ease, simplicity, and speed of mobile devices are promoting the trend toward consumers using these devices as their primary means of accessing school information,” LTGI President Troy Lindner said. “Mobile devices will play an ever-increasing role for day-to-day parent, teacher and school communications.”
