The Remind 101 Android app is a safe way for teachers to text message students and helps keep parents "in the loop". Students and parents have to enter a confirmation code to state that they do want to be contacted by you through the service. Remind 101 keeps phone numbers hidden so that the parties cannot see each other's numbers. This app is currently being used in my classroom and soccer field. I have reminders such as: Library Day, Assignments Due, Parent/Conference schedules and more. I have really enjoyed using this app with my students and athletes. I'm sure you will too!!
