With SchoolStatus Connect, you can now set your availability based on your given Office Hours or when you are generally available to respond to messages.
When you set your office hours in SchoolStatus Connect, the following will happen when parents send you a message outside of your office hours:
- Push notifications on the mobile app will turn off automatically.
- Parents will be notified that you won’t be able to respond right away. There are two areas where they will be notified about this:
- On the upper part of the conversation window.
-
When you click the teacher's name, a side window will appear showing all the members in the conversation. There's an icon next to your name indicating that you are away.
