Dear Parents,
I am trying something new this year to better communicate with parents and students about what we are learning in class. This is completely voluntary, but I want to keep you up to date with anything that is going on including what content your child is learning about, news, and test/important date reminders. You can also add your child to receive these messages as well on the website. I will NOT blow-up your cell phone or email with non-stop messaging.
Since this is my first year using this, I will apologize in advance for any growing pains. It should only take a few times of using this to see if there are any kinks to be worked out. I do appreciate your understanding in advance.
I would highly encourage you to sign up because this will be the main way for me to keep you informed throughout the year (I also send out messages via Skyward, so please make sure you have gone by the front office to sign up for access).
Sincerely,
Andrew Rappaport M.Ed.

What is Remind.com?
Remind is a free communication platform built for teachers. This product enables me to safely and efficiently interact with students and parents about important information relating to the classroom and school activities. Remind is safe and easy because teachers can engage students and parents without needing to upload cell phone numbers and without having to give their personal phone numbers out.
Remind has already been adopted by more than 15% of the entire K-12 teacher population in the United States and we're growing quickly.

Does someone need a smartphone to use Remind?
No, a smartphone is not necessary to send or receive Remind messages. However, you must be able to receive texts. If you cannot receive texts you can sign up to receive Remind notifications by email. Teachers can send messages via the website by logging into their account at www.remind.com. Teachers who would like to send Remind messages via a mobile device, will need to use the Remind iOS or Android app on a smartphone or tablet.

How do I get messages by email, instead of by text?
All you have to do is send a blank email to [email protected]. So if, for example, your class code was "math" you would send a blank email to: [email protected]
