How does eSchoolNewsletter differ from Yahoo Groups or other list serves?
The eSchoolNewsletter database is updated on a regular basis. Parents signup online and have the ability to edit at any time. In addition, the eSchoolNewsletter database constantly evolves. The emails are always accurate and fresh. As an example, if you are a middle school, by the end of June, your 8th graders will be moved to high school and new 6th graders from the feeder elementary schools, will have arrived in your database. You can send out newsletters during the summer to an accurate database if you wish. Also, only principals, PTA officials and county administrators can access the database. No one else can send emails. They can email to the entire school or a single grade. Each year, parents receive a list of important dates. We are current designing the system to automatically send out reminders of these important dates to the parents. Parents will receive several days advanced notice.
