Message several classes at once
A screen recording of Pearspark doing exactly this in a sample school, and the same 8 steps written out below in the labels you'll see on screen.
How to message several classes at once
- 1Click Messages in the sidebar; it opens on Chats
- 2Click the School mail tab, then Compose
- 3Under Send to choose A class
- 4Pick the first class from the dropdown; it becomes a chip, and its x removes it
- 5Use Add another class… for each extra one
- 6Write an optional Subject and the Message
- 7Check the "Sending to:" line, then click Send; the button reads "Send to N", counting each student in the chosen classes once, and their families get a copy
- 8Click Sent: the note is one entry addressed to every class you picked, and each family sees it once
