Better Control for Administrators

Rollover Updates

Over the summer, you will see a new wizard with a step-by-step guide that will help you have control over the entire rollover process! Need to remove graduates and add new students? Now you can accomplish the entire process in-house. Don’t miss the free trainings that are already scheduled!

Personalizing the Dismissal Options

This update adds a lot of flexibility to naming your pickup methods – enabling the in-app names to be closer to what you want to call them. Breaking up the monotonous, carline, walker options on parents apps

For example, if you want to highlight the morning drop-off, you could change it to the school icon and change the name as needed. 

OneClick Updates on Student Page

We’ve improved the filters on The All Student Pages! The customizable filters allow you to create or update bulk pickup changes for any group of students. 

Bulk Messaging Parents

When creating parent notifications, The ‘child name’ section has been changed to ‘student.’  And the ability to filter by ‘parent status’ has also been added – you can filter by either registered or unregistered parents 

Custom Car Tags

We’ve updated the fields on our car tag printouts. You can now add class or teacher names to any car tag by going to advanced printing. 

Teacher Dashboard Updates

Simplifying District Sign-Ons

As Pikmykid continues to grow and expand the districts in our family, we’re striving to make your lives safer and simpler. That’s why we’ve added the ability for staff that works at multiple schools across a district, the ability to access all their school portals with a single sign-on!

New Tools for Classroom Teachers

At the end of a hectic school day, the last thing teachers want to stress about is which of their students have had dismissal changes happen. With this update, the classroom dashboard shows teacher’s any and all changes on a single dashboard. AND, when a parent announces, a bullhorn is displayed next to their name to tell the teacher that it’s time to send the appropriate student(s) for pickup.
