SIGN UP, SIGN UP, SIGN UP…
In an effort to be more efficient and get information out to you as quickly as possible including simple reminders, I would like to invite you to be part of my Remind 101 Parent Team. This is an “app” that allows me to send a quick message out to all subscribers. For example: Winter Parties; No School Dec. 23rd- Jan. 5th, etc. Just examples that I find myself wanting to share in the afternoons as a reminder from the weekly eBlast. If you are interested in receiving this message, you can subscribe using the link below. It can be set up to come as a text, an email, or both. I look forward to strengthening our communication!
**This year I'm using Remind101, a safe app that allows me to send text and email updates about important school information. To sign up to get messages about Tuscany Heights Ele Parents, click here.
