Opt in required to receive text alerts from CCPS
As part of the school division’s transition to SchoolMessenger, our new email, text and phone messaging system, families and staff members should receive a text message on Aug. 14, 2026, asking them to confirm that they wish to continue receiving important text alerts from their school and the school division.
The text will come from this five-digit short code: 67587
The message will say:
Chesterfield County School District messages. Reply Y to confirm, HELP 4 info. Msg&data rates may apply. Msg freq varies.
When the text is received, reply Y to opt in. Those who do not reply will no longer receive text alerts from their school or the school division.
For more information about ways to opt in and why the opt-in step is required, see this flyer.
For a few weeks, both Apptegy and SchoolMessenger will be operational for messaging. During this transition, school and school division text messages may come from either of two five-digit short codes, one associated with each system. This does not mean the same message will be received from both numbers. Messages from either number are legitimate CCPS communications.
