Remind: Teacher/Coach/Sponsor Procedures
What is Remind?
Remind is a free communication platform built for teachers. The product enables teachers to safely and efficiently
interact with parents and students about important information relating to the classroom and school activities. Remind
is safe and easy because teachers can engage parents and students without needing to upload cell phone numbers and
without having to give their personal phone numbers out.
Remind Features:
 Remind is FREE.
 Remind provides an efficient way for teachers, parents and students to be on the same page about what’s going
on at school.
 Personal contact information is not shared between teachers and parents, or teachers and students.
 Messaging is one-way so teachers share the most important class information, reminders and updates, but
there is no chance of unfair or inappropriate back-and-forth communication between student and teacher.
 Parents can choose to sign up with an e-mail address or a phone number to receive all future teacher messages.
How to Get Started:
1. Submit completed electronic communications permission form to principal.
2. Visit www.remind101.com.
3. Select “Teacher sign up” and complete the form: first name, last name, CPSB email address, and password. Then
click on “Sign up.” CPSB email addresses must be used with Remind.
4. In the left-hand menu, click on “ADD A NEW CLASS,” and enter the class name. A class code will be assigned to
your first class automatically. You have the ability to create your own class code for each additional class. Each
account can have up to 10 classes.
5. Use the blue “Invite students & parents” button at the top of the right-hand column to begin adding participants
to your classes.
6. When the invitations popup window appears, click on the blue “DOWNLOAD PDF” text in the upper right-hand
corner to download your unique invitation flier. Please make hard-copies of this flier to distribute to your
parents and students to allow them to subscribe to your Remind class.
