Remind 101

Parents.  I will be using remind101 in my classroom to communicate with parents regarding school information, Tests, school projects and more.  This program allows me to safely text message parents regarding reminders from our classroom.  I will send quick text messages to your phone.  The program allows me to text you but I won't have your cell phone number nor will parents have access to my cell phone number.  You can opt out at any time.  This could be a quick and efficient way to communicate with you.  If you have a child in my homeroom and reading class you will need to sign up for both classes.  If you would like to sign up for email reminders instead please let me know and I can give you instructions.
