Remind your Parents

I recently heard about this awesome site and I thought it would be perfect to share with you. It's called Remind. It allows you to text your parents in a mass text message to remind them to do things like turn in their field trip money.

It is absolutely free of charge to teachers and no additional charge to parents for text messages.
This is something that parents don't have to have internet to sign up for. When you sign up as a teacher it allows you to set up a class code and all you have to do is let parent know what the code is and have them text it to the designated number.

Another cool thing about remind is you send your text messages through the website so this keeps your phone number secret and parents can't respond to your messages. This is useful when you just want to send a bulk message to parents and you don't need them to answer you back.

I am definitely using this this year.

If you have used remind before please comment and let me know how you have used it.
