It’s a known fact that phones can be a distraction in class…but teachers are finding
that texts can be a helpful tool for students after school or when they are sent to
parents. Text message reminders can be used for a multitude of ways to help
learning. Here are just a few use cases below:

 Reminders to students and parents of when exams are happening
 Alerts on when assignments, essays, or other projects are due
 Bulk texts to remind parents of Parent Teacher Day or other important
meetings
 Reminders to register for standardized testing by certain dates
 Messages to parents about forms that need to be filled out or upcoming field
trips

These are just a few instances of how text messaging can help improve learning and
build better communication between students, teachers, and parents. Traditionally
phones and texting have a bad rap when it comes to schools, but with Email-to- SMS
solutions, they can be leveraged for good. To learn more about these services or try
