Providers: Contacting Families

How to Contact Families in Homeroom

There are two ways to contact families through Homeroom—either outside the platform using your own email client or directly within the Homeroom messaging system.

Option 1: Email Families Outside of Homeroom

You can easily copy and paste all parent emails into your preferred email client.

To do this:

1. Click on the activity name.
2. Go to the Enrollments tab.
3. Click the three-dot menu next to Add Student.
4. Select Copy Emails.
5. Open your external email platform (e.g., Gmail or Outlook) and paste the emails into the To field.

This will populate your email with the addresses of all enrolled families so you can send your message outside of Homeroom.

Option 2: Message Families Within Homeroom

You can also send messages to families directly through the Homeroom platform.

To do this:

1. Click on the activity name.
2. In the Enrollments tab, select all or specific students you wish to contact.
3. Click Message from the action toolbar.
4. Type your message.
5. Choose whether to send the message as an email or text.
6. Select whether to send it as a group message (everyone sees replies) or as individual threads.
