This application provides for a safe way to text students in a one-way text messaging and email system. It is great to use for classes, clubs, sports, etc. Teachers will never see student numbers, nor will students see the teacher's number. In 3 easy steps, a teacher can be ready to implement this application. There is also an app for the phone.
Step 1
After you have registered, you are ready to add a class.
Step 2
REMIND 101 creates a safe number and class code for you to give your students and parents.
Step 3
Here is your dashboard for your class. Invite your students and staff to subscribe to your class so that you can keep them informed.

- Uses the cloud
- Syncs with all of your devices
- App available for iphone, android, ipad and blackberry
