Guardian Summaries

Google Classroom Guardian Summaries

Every classroom has a setting to turn Guardian Summary reporting on or off. It is on by default. The setting enables teachers to email and invite parents to receive a Guardian Summary report of their student's participation in the Google Classroom. The report is generated automatically and emailed to the Guardian. The Guardian summary includes:

• Missing work—Work that’s late at the time the email was sent
• Upcoming work—Work that’s due today and tomorrow (for daily emails) or work that’s due in the upcoming week (for weekly emails)
• Class activity—Announcements, assignments, and questions recently posted by teachers.

Once the teacher invites the parent to receive the Guardian Summary, the parent receives an email to accept the invitation. If they accept, they can set up the frequency for receiving the parent guardian summary (daily M-F or weekly).

Teachers should use the parent/guardian email that is in PowerSchool to invite the guardian

Parents are able to unsubscribe after accepting the invitation.
