Virginia Beach City Public Schools launches mobile website

Posted

Virginia Beach, Va. – Virginia Beach City Public Schools’ website has gone mobile. Now parents, students and community members can get the most in-demand information from vbschools.com right from their smart phone, officials say.

Highlights of the new mobile site include:

• A school directory which features a Call button for easy one-button dialing of school numbers and a Get Directions button. The directions feature will utilize an enabled phone location system to provide directions to any VBCPS building. The directory feature also enables viewers to email the school listing or to print it on a wireless networked printer.

• A school calendar and A/B calendar. The division is now using a Google calendar, which gives up-to-the-minute updates of any changes made to the calendar. The division will be converting to a Google format for all calendars on vbschools.com, effective July 1.

• Easy access to emergency and cancellation information.
