Remind App
A safe way for teachers to text message students and stay in touch with parents
What is Remind and how can you use it in the classroom?
Remind is a free communication platform built for teachers. Our product enables you to safely and efficiently interact with students and parents about important information relating to the classroom and school activities. Remind is safe and easy because teachers can engage students and parents without needing to upload cell phone numbers and without having to give their personal phone numbers out. Remind has already been adopted by more than 15% of the entire K-12 teacher population in the United States and we're growing quickly.
