From outdoor and cultural field trips to Catholic celebrations and school announcements, Our Lady of the Sacred Heart Academy uses School Signals to share updates with the school community.
Our Lady of the Sacred Heart Academy (OLSHA) is a Catholic Pre-K–12 school in Rockford, Illinois, offering a classical liberal arts education that emphasizes faith, intellectual development, and character.
OLSHA began using School Signals in 2025, and it has since become a regular part of how the school communicates with families.
Plenty happens at Our Lady of the Sacred Heart Academy beyond regular classroom lessons. Students head outdoors for nature studies, join cultural field trips, and enjoy extracurricular activities. Religious celebrations and traditions bring students of different ages together, often with school-wide festivities.
Teachers and school administrators readily share photo galleries from these experiences in School Signals. Parents enjoy pictures from field trips and special celebrations, while also finding school information on lunch orders, upcoming events, date changes, and reminders in the same platform.
For teachers and administrators, School Signals makes it easy to share updates without relying on separate communication channels for different types of news.
Donna Pozezinski, Office Administrator at Our Lady of the Sacred Heart Academy, has been pleased with the experience.
“Both our parents and staff love how easy it is to communicate what is happening within our school and its activities,” she states.
She also credits the personal support provided during the school's introduction to School Signals.
“James has been a wonderful help in implementing the system and answering any questions we have," she continues.
OLSHA continues to share school news and classroom experiences through the platform, giving families a regular look at the activities, learning, and traditions that are part of the Academy.
