When your district uses the portals, you can set up the ability for students and parents to receive email notifications when any of the following is entered:

• A daily attendance record
• A conduct record
• A health visit record
• A grade that falls below a threshold determined by the student’s family contact an adult you can contact regarding a student's academic or personal information

  Note: For a parent or guardian to receive email notifications: They must be set up as the student's contact. The Receive email and Contact has family portal access checkboxes must be selected on the Contacts > Details page. The student must have an enrollment status of Active or Active No Primary.

To set up family and student email notifications:

• Define the information a user views when subscribing to an email, and the information they view in the email.
• Create a job for the procedures provided for each type of email (attendance, conduct, grades, health). The job schedule determines when the emails are compiled and sent.
• Family members and students subscribe to the emails they want to receive.
