This guide will help you easily navigate the restructured messaging section to start conversations with parents, staff, or entire class groups.
Step 1: Accessing Messages
On the left side of the main application menu, locate and click on the "Messages" option.
Step 2: Starting a New Conversation
Once the messages window opens, click on the "Write" button (or the corresponding pencil icon) to start a new chat.
Step 3: Choosing Your Recipient or Group
You now have several options depending on who you want to communicate with:
