Text Messaging for Schools
Simplify communication and keep students, parents, and staff in the loop with SMS for schools from TextSpot.
Why Use SMS Software for Schools?
Flyers and forms get lost in students’ backpacks. Emails get lost in parents’ and staff members’ inboxes. But almost everyone has a phone that can receive text messages—and most people read them. In fact, most texts are opened within an average of three minutes. Make sure your students, their families, and your staff never miss crucial messages from your school.

Frequently Asked Questions
Yes, but you do have to make sure that students and their parents or guardians opt into receiving text messages from your school and that an opt-out process is easy and honored. You will want to be in compliance with various telecommunications regulations, such as the Telephone Consumer Protection Act (TCPA).
The Family Educational Rights and Privacy Act (FERPA) also stipulates that student records are kept private, including personally identifiable information. Texts you send to current, potential, or past students must comply with FERPA standards.
