Emailing Parent & Student Groups

There are three different ways for you to find/use parent emails in your email program here at NIST.

  • To email all parents or all students in a class, there is a button on each of your classes in Veracross to Email Parents.
    • Hover over the word Contact next to the class you want
    • Two links will appear called Email Parents and Email Students.
    • Clicking on either will result in a new email being opened in your email client with the address in the To: field. You should leave the address in the To: field. Do not put the address in the BCC: field. The email will be rejected. This group address can NOT be used inside Google Drive to share a file. It can be used to copy a link and send via email to a group.
    • Type your email, subject, etc. and press Send.
  • To share a document to students by class, you can use Google groups by typing the classID from Veracross (e.g. 03-ART.3AB or 10-MAT-EX.02) into the Sharing panel of a document or folder. (The members of these groups are automagically maintained each year.)
  • To email one student or parents of one student, look on the student profile pop-up in Veracross. There is a button to email either parent or to email both parents.

Emailing Parents by Year Level (Coordinators Only)

Restrictions apply when emailing very large groups

The groups below are restricted to use by school offices, counselling, and year level coordinators. If you need to send a message to any group larger than a year level, contact your head of section or the Director of Communications.
