How can teachers text parents without sharing everyone’s number?

Send each parent an individual text rather than a group message. BCC Text sends one message as separate texts, so no parent sees another family’s number. Teachers who prefer not to use a personal number can send through Google Voice.

Tips for teachers & schools texts

Follow your school’s policy on texting families and which number to use.
Keep sensitive details (grades, behavior) to a call or a private conversation.
A positive note home early in the year makes harder conversations easier later.
Keep it to one text. Check any message with the character counter.
