How can we offer Rewards for using a free app?
Well, luckily we’ve got some help from our generous friends…
“ClassTag is transformational. I have never seen this level of parent engagement. A must have tool for every teacher!”
Rebecca Karow Kindergarten Teacher, Success Academy, New York City“What I love about ClassTag is that if I have something in my calendar, or that parents need to respond to, ClassTag sends them automatic reminders, so I don’t need to do any of that work.”
Danielle Fugazzi 1st Grade Teacher, Now Assistant Principal, New York City“We had the idea to have parents choose their own times for parent-teacher conferences...We implemented that with ClassTag, it was super cool. Teachers bought into it... it was fabulous!”
Susan Oehlertz Technology Integrationist“ClassTag has opened up the gates for teacher-parent communication! There's no more waiting for responses or risking lost papers getting sent to and from school. It is a super way to send reminders to parents!”
