Remind

What is Remind?

Remind is a communication platform that makes it easier for educators, students, and parents to work together. Remind has easy-to-use features that allow schools and districts to activate engagement across their communities. Remind allows for the sending of messages via SMS, in-app notifications, or email and phone calls without sharing personal contact information. Remind is now the official communication platform for SGF!
