    There is an option in the Family Access Entity Configuration area to “allow guardians to send message center messages”. If enabled, guardians can post messages to all teachers via the Wall/Home.

    If this solution will satisfy the customer need – we will void/remove this idea from the Product Ideas Portal.

    Try this Instead  ·  AdminAli DeGeorge (Product Manager, Skyward SMS 2.0) responded

    As mentioned by others in the comments, you can leverage parental consent notes and/or critical alerts to help draw additional attention to these students. We did bring this feedback over to the Qmlativ product and much like on SMS you can require acknowledgement on Critical Alerts; however, on Qmlativ we do this per student based on their explicit situation, in addition to allowing a custom note to be added to the alert that can be viewed by anyone who has access to that student indicator for additional awareness.

    Inquiring with customers to see which specific reporting needs are not being met for Special Programs. Looking for consistency.

    Voters: Please include details for this idea if there are specifics you are looking for! This greatly helps us evaluate if options exist or what type of change should be considered.

    Thank you!
