Dear Families,

As a way to keep you more up to date on the events taking place at out school, I would like to introduce you to Remind 101! Remind 101 is a free messaging system that will allow us to send out text message reminders to those parents who choose to subscribe. Here’s how it works …

• If you choose to subscribe, text our class code: @bkes2020 to

• You should then receive a text message that states the following. “Thanks! Bonny Kate Elementary School needs to know who you are. Please reply with your full name. Note: The name you send will be saved and used for all future classes.”

• After you reply with your name you should receive one more message stating “Thanks (your name)! As a member of @bkes2020, you will receive all of Bonny Kate Elementary Schools Remind notifications. Reply HELP for commands.”

• The End . You will now automatically be updated with school reminders! This is such a great tool for us as it saves time AND trees by cutting down on typing up notes, printing them off, and making copies!

We plan on using the Remind text messaging system and posting to Facebook throughout the year as needs and volunteer opportunities arise. We encourage you to join the text message group, to join the Bonny Kate Facebook page, and to regularly check the Bonny Kate website for updates.

Remind is a yearly subscription and must be signed up for each year.

If you have any questions about Remind App, please feel free to email melanie.mclemore@gmail.com
