Sending Email Through Infinite Campus (contributed by Tripti Agarwal)

Many students’ parents have email addresses in IC. It’s really easy to mass message them by:

  1. Clicking on Instruction

  2. Message Center

  3. New

  4. Type in subject and message

  5. Click next and select your classes

  6. Preview recipients before you send

  7. Google Translate works really well (almost perfect) for Spanish and French.
