Ada schools announced on Bulldogs Facebook that the school is rolling out Remind districtwide.
It's a classroom communication tool that makes it easy to stay involved with your child's learning. Remind is free to use, and parents will be able to get and send messages on any device—even a simple text message from your phone.
As part of this rollout, official accounts will be created for all the educators, parents, and students at Ada Schools.
On Jan. 29 parents received an email or text message from Remind. All that is needed to take place next is to follow the steps in the message to finish setting up an account.
