This summer, Lincoln Public Schools switched over to a new communications platform that includes updated websites and mass notification messaging along with a new app for the district that you can choose to download.

The LPS.org app (iOS or Android) allows LPS families and the community to view school and district news, events and information easily on their phone. You can also choose to receive push notifications through the app. (Please note that LPS will continue to use Synergy ParentVUE for grade and attendance information and for most communication from teachers.)

With the updated platform, you may notice an updated look to school and district websites, along with a new look for emails. The websites will include news and events that can also be seen in the app. When LPS calls you using this new system, it will either come from the district office or from your school office number. When we use the new platform for text messages, the text will come from 98900.
