Seneca High School has recently changed school website providers to Apptegy. The website domain will remain the same (www.senecahs.org) but there is also a new app that can be downloaded on iOS or Android. The app features a live feed and events calendar that will allow community members to see all Seneca High School communications in one place and to personalize notifications they receive based on their interests. We are very excited for this new tool and think it will be much easier to keep track of your students from just the press of a button!
