How to Add Multiple Senders to an Announcement

There are several ways to make teachers/admins owners/senders of an announcement.

Option 1: Directly Add Owner to Announcement
When co-teachers or admins are directly added by name to an announcement, they automatically become an owner of the message. (This can be undone by following the "remove owner" steps below).

They will be able to send announcements in the message thread even if they didn't initiate the message thread, and view read receipts, edit history, and edit the message thread.
