Case Study: Carolina Day School strengthens family communication with Finalsite

Carolina Day School - Customer Case Study

Carolina Day School faced major disruption when a hurricane hit during a critical period, forcing campus closure for 13 school days and interrupting back-to-school preparations, admissions events, homecoming, and spirit week. The school turned to Finalsite’s mass notifications platform to keep families informed during the crisis.

Using Finalsite, Carolina Day School sent coordinated SMS, email, and web notifications to share updates on closures, safety, assessments, and reopening plans. The result was timely, multi-channel communication that helped families stay informed and supported the school’s reopening in October ahead of most other schools in the region.
