Parents will receive an automatic email containing their login information and their usernames and passwords. The email also explains ParentEdge to them and how they can best utilize it. In addition, parents will also receive a short text message indicating they have been signed up for ParentEdge. Finally, we suggest a notification of some kind from the school, sent home to parents, explaining what ParentEdge is and how it will benefit both parents and students. An automated phone call home could also help explain the concept to parents.
