Frequently Asked Questions
If your question isn't answered below, please send us an email!
-
What phone number does this use?
When you purchase a TextYourSchool subscription, we provide you with a unique phone number that you will use just for this service. Any text sent to that number is forwarded to your email.
-
What information gets sent to me with the text message?
In addition to the English translated text, the message sent to you includes the original message, the date, and the phone number that sent the message.
-
How do parents know what information to send in the text?
Parents should probably text your the same information they would leave in a voicemail. So if their child is sick they probably want to leave their name, child's name, the teacher, and let you know the child will not be at school. We have an example flyer you can use to send your parents to explain the new service to them and what information they should text you.
-
How will parents know their message went through?
When parents send a text message they get a short reply that says their message has been sent to the school office. This can be customized for your school.
-
Are there "standard texting fees" for the school?
There are no messaging fees for the school - those are all included in your subscription plan. Parents who text you have their own phone plans that may have standard texting fees.
-
Is this only for absences?
Although absences are the most common reason parents call a school office, parents send schools all kinds of information through TextYourSchool!
-
Can I get picture messages through this?
TextYourSchool only processes plain text messages. Picture messages are not processed.
