In an effort to provide open communication to everyone across the district, we will be using the Remind app to send important messages directly to your email or phone. “Remind” is a messaging service that will be especially useful during inclement weather and other times we need to communicate quickly. As many of you know, we used Remind in the past with parents, students, and staff with great success. We will continue to sync the Remind system with our data systems to keep everyone connected and informed.
Once your Remind account is created by the nightly sync, school community members can update the email and phone number directly in Remind by signing in at https://remind.com and use the “Log-in with Google” option with your Plainedge email. “Remind” also has an app that can be installed on your phone, but it is not required to receive the messages, they will be sent to the email address / phone number that that is on file.
You may receive an email (from Remind) with information regarding logging in and app set up.
Here are some quick guides on setting up your account once you log in:
