Eat healthier. Save more money. Read a new book. Exercise. Improve parent engagement. That’s right. The New Year’s Resolution for teachers, that will make your life easier. With ClassTag, you might just be able to do it all (and did we mention it’s completely free?). Once you try it, you may just wonder why you hadn’t tried it sooner.
Having a parent communication platform that is simple and joyful is important to any teacher’s routine (and sanity!). Better yet, you don’t have to wait until the next school year to try something new. We’ll tell you why…
The Transition to Having Better Parent Engagement is Easy
Have you tried other parent communication apps? Perhaps they aren’t ticking off all the boxes for you? Well, we’ve made transitioning to ClassTag quick and painless. Teachers who decided to begin the new year with a new parent communication app have not been disappointed – it wasn’t as hard as they feared and parents have been very understanding.
Don’t be afraid of a mid-year switch! Creating your classroom on ClassTag only takes a couple of minutes, especially if you already have a list of parent emails ready to import. We also have multiple ways of letting parents know about the new tool, and you can even send invitations in different languages!
Save Yourself Time with this New Year’s Resolution for Teachers
Imagine if you started the new year with a virtual classroom assistant? A tool that would make all of your teaching dreams come true? What would you do with all that free time?
With automatic newsletters, virtual and in-person event coordination, and automatic conferencing, you can save time, even if you’re teaching virtually!
This school year is my ninth year of teaching and my first not distributing a paper newsletter to my parents. I was able to simplify my classroom communication with ClassTag and make it less time-consuming with automated newsletters and quick pictures and communications.

Make a New Year’s Resolution to Earn Free Supplies!
The new year often comes with new classroom supply needs. What if you could take care of those needs while doing something that you are already doing?
I love ClassTag Rewards, because I can earn free classroom supplies and gift cards for my classroom for doing something I do anyway—communicating with parents.
Mrs. Lockler, 2nd Grade Teacher in Texas
We believe that it’s time teachers got the support they deserve, which is why we now have $3,000,000+ in free classroom supplies, software, and tech available for teachers as part of the ClassTag Rewards program. Sound’s like a New Year’s Resolution teachers could certainly get on board with!
Already Use ClassTag? Referring Other Teachers is Easy
They say the most valuable resource teachers have is each other. We agree! You can’t help support the next generation if you keep all of your great ideas to yourself. That’s why we’ve made it super simple (and rewarding!) to refer other teachers to your new favorite classroom app:
- Teachers click the three lines in the top right corner.
- Click the purple “Share ClassTag” icon
- From the referral page, all you need to do is enter another teacher’s email, phone number, or even share it via social media. Make sure they use your UNIQUE referral code. This ensures you get credit for their referral (cha-ching… ClassTag coins!).
- Check back to the referral page to see if your fellow teacher has signed up for ClassTag. As soon as your referred teacher gets signed up and starts a classroom you’ll both get 150 coins!
We appreciate your help sharing your love of ClassTag with other teachers!
I referred my friend, a kindergarten teacher, to ClassTag and she absolutely loves this platform. She says it’s much easier to communicate with the parents and they get back to her much faster than they ever have before.
