Parents can now add work and personal email in Infinite Campus

For our parents –

Infinite Campus now lets you add two email addresses for each person!    After logging into Infinite Campus, click on Contact Preferences, and you now have the ability to have two email addresses in our system.

Why two addresses?  Many parents have both a work and a personal email account – and they want emergency notifications to go to both addresses, but they only want the personal/home email address listed in the student directory.

Assuming that you would like your personal email address in our student directories and to keep your work email account private, our advice is to place your personal/home email address in the primary email address field and then add your work email address in the secondary email field.

Past Due Fee Reminders

Over the last year, we’ve been using the messenger (both email and voice) functionality of Infinite Campus to send reminders of past due fees.  Has it been working? What’s the response been?

Total Outstanding fees (school/book/transportation)  Lunch/food NOT included.
April 2012	$126,000
May 2012	$105,000
Nov 13, 2012	$74,600
Nov 27, 2012	$63,500

 

Over time, the usage of Campus Messenger to send reminders has been helpful and has reduced our past due fees – and we’ll continue to use the system for this purpose.
