The College Counseling office will begin using the text messaging to communicate with junior and senior families regarding the college admissions process. Announcements may be sent regarding college visits, SAT/ACT registration dates, application reminders, and other deadlines. This system is the same one that Bishop Manogue currently uses to communicate announcements, schedule changes and other events with families. Parents of juniors and seniors will automatically receive these texts. If a parent does not wish to receive these texts or a student wishes to be added to this announcement list, please email Mrs. Welmerink at diana.welmerink@bishopmanogue.org with the name and the phone number to be added/dropped from the contact list.
