Emails and SMS messages out to parents to notify them of behaviors and consequences can be edited by Owners. The subject, as well as the body of the message, can be changed to suit your needs. Custom variables (name, behavior type, school name, etc.) can also be added or removed.
The new “Teacher Note” option allows for the ability to include a further custom note from the teacher on the behavior or consequence.

- Set all Praise points to (1)
- Set all Guidance points to (0)
- We recommend not taking away points for Guidance Behaviors
