Use talking points to communicate with teachers and Schools
What is talking points?
What is talking points?
TalkingPoints is a two-way multilingual messaging system. Your student's teachers or other school staff can use it to send class-wide announcements or individual messages. You will receive them as SMS text messages unless you've downloaded the free parent app.
To send a message to your student's teachers, you can respond via text to the same number you have received messages from in the past. Using the parent app, go into the message thread for that teacher to compose a message.

Do I need to download an app to use TalkingPoints?
No, you can send and receive TalkingPoints messages as SMS text messages.
I tried to download the app and it asked me for a class code. What is this?
Class codes are used by teachers who use the free account. Since our district has a paid account, there are no class codes. If you download the app and are prompted to enter a code, it means a different number was pulled from our system (EX: Mom's cell instead of Dad's cell.) To have your number added, contact your student's school.
Which contacts receive TalkingPoints messages?
TalkingPoints messages are automatically sent to one of the phone numbers listed as the primary guardian. If you would like additional contacts to receive TalkingPoints messages, contact your student's school.
What do I do if I need to change my contact information?
Contact your student's school to update your information.
