Broadcasts by email and text

Open Broadcasts and write your message. The office can send to every family, one grade, one class or all staff; teachers to the families of their own classes.

1. Write the message. Tick By text to add a short text version (up to 320 characters).
2. Save and review: see exactly how many people it reaches by portal, email and text, before anything is sent.
3. Send. Everyone gets it in the portal at once; emails and texts go out in batches.

The broadcast’s page then shows how it went for each person: read, emailed, opened, bounced, texted, delivered.

Texts only go to parents who opted in. Setting up email and text providers is in Setting up email.
