Adding or Updating Staff and External Staff with a CSV or Integrated Google Spreadsheet in ReachMyTeach

Staff can log in and send messages to students and families. This includes teachers, administrators, secretaries, and nurses. External staff (e.g., bus drivers, crossing guards, coaches, and volunteers) typically only receive messages, with some exceptions like coaches who have limited messaging capabilities.
