One of the great features of the QuickSchools Parent Portal is parent-to-parent private messaging. This system lets parents communicate easily with other parents to discuss school functions or other topics, without having to keep track of a bunch of separate outside email threads. All this is done through the Parent Directory module. Parents can also view each other’s contact information from the same place.
There are just a few steps between logging in and sending a private message. If you’d like to see a step-by-step guide to getting started, please read on!
