The notification system created just for teachers!
Teacher Communications is a notification system similar to Mass Notifications, but designed specifically for teachers. This system allows teachers to send regular or pre-made messages via email, text/SMS messages, and if turned on for your district, phone messages. These messages are categorized into teacher specific categories and can be targeted to select students based on the message subject. Teachers can also create their own messages.
As an administrator, you can manage the categories and messages available, and determine when the messages will be sent.
