You might want to consider a mobile app. Our school has one through School APPtitude and we are really happy with it. In fact a lot of schools in our district are using apps.
School APPtitude makes mobile apps for parent groups which includes unlimited push notifications. You can link the pushes to events, volunteer sign-ups, webpages, etc....
School APPtitude also integrates sponsorships into your school-branded custom app so that it can be free or RAISE MONEY. Schools and parents love the push notifications and it really keeps parents informed!
