I can recommend mine.....
I coordinate the School Connection program, co-sponsored by The Seattle
Times and U.S. Bank, here in Seattle. We've been in operation since March
1994.

The service is _free_ to schools, parents and students and is a free local
call within the Seattle area. We currently have approximately 180 schools
from nine districts, plus several private schools, on the system.

Each teacher receives one (or more if they wish) "voice box" to record
homework info, activities, report card dates, etc. Each school also
receives five hotlines for general information.

If you want more information, I can mail our promotional information to you.
If there is not a program through your local newspaper, I can put you in
touch with the right person(s) to try to get one going. It's a great
service, especially since it is free.
