Welcome Email:
This is an email that is sent to all students on the day they are assigned to your course. I personally like to send it to students and parents. An example of mine is below ( I deleted out personal information such as school name and phone number):
Personal vs Mass Communication
Often times I have used blast emails, blast texts, or blast calls to hit kids all at once. I use this for informal items such as mass reminders or no work in a certain time period. Personal communication should always be used in the beginning of the course to develop a relationship with the student.
Stakeholders: We need to communicate with schools and parents about student progress. We want to reach parents in their preferred method to help them make time for us
School policies: During welcome call these policies should be discussed with parents and students
Tools available: Remind 101 is amazing. I personally like google voice and mass texts through outlook system.
Welcome to Government Online!

Teacher. I am so excited to be part of such a memorable school year!
I will be calling you soon
to do your welcome call, but feel free to call me after school for the required
Welcome Call. I will
also need to speak to a parent, but it does NOT need to be at the same time. I am excited to meet you on the phone
and answer all of the questions that I know you must have. You may call me 8:00
am -8:00 pm at my home office number *****.
If I don’t answer, chances are I am on another call. All you need to do
is leave a message and I will get back to you as soon as possible. Texting and
emailing are also GREAT!
