Platform

Everything your school needs to stay connected

Kesher replaces the patchwork of email blasts, group texts, and manual lists that most schools rely on. One platform, every channel, for every part of your community.

02

Simple message campaigns

Write a message, choose your audience, pick a channel, and send. Track delivery, opens, and failures in real time. Every campaign is saved with its full history.

03

Audiences and groups

Create custom audience segments — grade level, homeroom, specific families. Message exactly who needs to hear from you, without copy-pasting lists.

Supported Channels

SMS

Text messages sent via a 10DLC-registered long code. Opt-outs handled in real time.

Email

HTML and plain-text email with delivery tracking and an optional ‘I’ve read this’ confirmation.

WhatsApp

WhatsApp Business messaging for school communities that prefer it.

Security & Compliance

Meets carrier and regulatory standards

Every SMS message sent through Kesher complies with CTIA Messaging Principles and Best Practices, TCPA requirements, and 10DLC registration guidelines. Kesher acts as a messaging service provider; each school is the Message Originator and is responsible for obtaining and maintaining consent records.

A2P 10DLC Registered

Kesher operates as a registered A2P 10DLC messaging platform for school communications. All SMS is sent from a dedicated campaign registered with The Campaign Registry (TCR).

CTIA-Compliant

Every outbound SMS message includes compliant STOP and HELP instructions. Opt-out requests are processed immediately and suppress that number from all future sends — permanently.

School-Facilitated Opt-In

Schools certify at import that every contact has provided explicit written or digital consent. Kesher enforces this certification before any phone number can be imported.

No Third-Party Data Sharing

Mobile information is never shared with third parties or affiliates for marketing or promotional purposes. Text messaging opt-in data and consent records are not shared with anyone.

For Carrier & Compliance Reviewers

Common Questions

Is Kesher available to any school?

Yes. Kesher is built for K–12 schools, yeshivas, community schools, and educational organizations of any size. We work with schools directly to get them onboarded.

How does consent work for SMS?

Every school must certify at import that each contact has provided explicit written or digital consent to receive SMS messages. Kesher enforces this before any number can be imported.

What happens when someone replies STOP?

Opt-out requests are processed in real time. The number is permanently suppressed from all future sends for that school and a confirmation message is sent automatically.

Is there a contract or long-term commitment?

Reach out to discuss your school's needs. We work with schools directly to find the right setup.
