For K-12, colleges & campuses

A campus local billboard that keeps everyone connected

Digital signage for schools puts daily announcements, lunch menus, event calendars, bus times, student spotlights, and priority alerts on any TV across your K-12 building or campus. It runs in a browser, uses screens you already own, and starts at $7.95 a month per school — with a 14-day trial, no card.

Announcements, calendars, lunch menus, bus times, student shout-outs — live on every screen on campus.

From $7.95/mo • No credit card • District & campus pricing available

Across the campus

A screen for every space, office to gym

Daily Announcements

Pledge, weather, birthdays, spirit days, today’s events. Build it once and it plays itself every morning.

Event Calendars

Games, concerts, parent nights, club meetings, picture day — a rotating list the front office updates in seconds.

Lunch Menus

Today’s hot lunch, the weekly rotation, allergens, special meals — on the cafeteria screen as kids walk in.

Bus Schedules

Route times, late-bus alerts, weather delays — posted by the doors so students and parents know what’s up.

Student Spotlights

Honor roll, student of the month, team wins, art showcases — quick wins that build spirit and recognize the work.

Priority Alerts

Closures, drill reminders, schedule changes — override every screen at once. It backs up, not replaces, your district’s official alert system.

School FAQ

What schools and districts ask us most

Can our school run morning announcements?

Yes. Build a slide set — pledge, lunch, weather, birthdays, reminders — set it for the morning broadcast, then let it rotate all day.

Is there educational pricing?

Plans start at $7.95/mo with no per-screen fees, so most schools don’t need a separate education rate. For 20+ displays or a whole district, contact us for a custom quote.

Different content in cafeteria vs hallways vs library?

Yes. Sort screens into zones — cafeteria, hallway, library, gym, office, classrooms — and give each its own playlist.

How do we display lunch menus?

Use the menu templates made for cafeteria screens — today’s hot lunch, the weekly rotation, allergens, and special meals.

Emergency alerts or safety announcements?

Yes — priority alerts override every screen at once. Important: test them as part of your safety drills. This backs up, but never replaces, your school’s official emergency notification system.

How much does digital signage for a school cost?

$7.95/mo for 2 displays (Bronze), $24.95 for 20 (Gold), $79.95 for 100 (Enterprise) — no per-screen fees. Hardware is a $40 streaming stick in a TV you own. Contact us for district quotes.

Does this work for K-12 vs college campuses?

Yes. K-12 leans on announcements, lunch menus, bus times, and student spotlights. Colleges stretch it into dorm lounges, lecture halls, student-union boards, and campus wayfinding.

Can we display student spotlights without privacy issues?

Yes, with consent. Follow your district’s FERPA policy and get parent/guardian sign-off before any student name, photo, or award goes on a public screen — most schools’ standard photo-release form covers it. We add no FERPA-specific features; the privacy policy stays yours to enforce.

How does this compare to printed posters and bulletin boards?

Posters run $20-100 a design and get reprinted on every change — 10 updates a month is $200-1,000 in printing. A digital billboard is a flat $7.95-79.95/mo with instant updates. Most schools break even by the end of the first semester.

What happens if WiFi drops during morning announcements?

Every screen keeps a local copy. If the WiFi drops during the broadcast or the school day, announcements, lunch menus, and event boards keep playing the last saved version, then re-sync on their own. No blank screens.

Can we manage multiple school buildings or a district?

Yes. Keep every building under one login, push district-wide announcements everywhere at once, or tailor each school. Gold runs 20 displays; Enterprise covers 100+ with multi-building admin controls and per-school staff permissions.
