North Penn Launches Mobile App

Lansdale, PA -- The North Penn School District has launched a new mobile application for smart phones and handheld devices, they announced in a press release. 

Following over a year of planning, the NPSD Mobile App is officially live and available to students, staff, families and community members. The app is compatible with Apple and Android devices and can be downloaded for free by searching “North Penn School District” in your device’s application store, according to the release.

The objective of the NPSD Mobile App is to serve as a one-stop resource for families of students in the district. The app provides instant, mobile access to the Home Access Center, district calendar, breakfast and lunch menus, the Community Bulletin Board, MyPayments+ school lunch account site, parent and student resources, daily notifications, student information including attendance, contact information to each of our 18 schools and district office and much more, the school said.

Important news and top stories circulate throughout the app to keep students, staff, families and community members updated while highlighting all of the wonderful things going on throughout the North Penn School District.

An additional unique feature of the NPSD Mobile App is the Comment Line – a section which allows users to provide feedback to the district in real time. While this section includes traditional categories like “Kudos” and “Suggestions,” a unique section for “Facilities” has also been included. This feature is designed to let the school district know if there is a facility issue at one of our buildings, as the Comment Line allows users to include GPS location as well as a photo that can be taken at the time of submission or loaded from camera roll, school officials said.

At this time, the section of the Comment Line which the district asks users to focus on is the category of “App Feedback.” As the launch of the NPSD Mobile App is in its initial stage, the district welcomes user suggestions and concerns. NPSD encourages students, staff, families and community members to utilize this section to offer feedback about their experience with the mobile app, according to the news release.
