It would be great to be able to send individual student messages, like the parents. This way during distance learning students can reach out to the teacher if they are stuck on something/need support.
Yes!! There are multiple times that I think of announcements that I want to send but don't want them to be delivered until evening when families are at home. If I could schedule those as I think of them would be so convienent!
I love creating morning meeting videos and could schedule them as I finish them rather than making sure I wake up in enough time to post them each morning and not forget!
My Teachers would like to use Announcements to share the activities that are due that day - have a links to the activities in the announcement now that Student links are available. Being able to schedule announcements would be VERY helpful.
Would love if Seesaw could schedule announcements to families or individual parents!! Also, there should be a feature to choose more than 1 family rather than all families.
Yes - the option to schedule an announcement (just like activities) would be super! I had this option last year with a different platform and am missing it with Seesaw.
We started in person and will be moving to remote just about any minute now. I would LOVE to be able to schedule Announcements to send out the daily schedule with linked Activities so I could do that during "work hours" and not at 6am every morning! THANKS Seesaw!!
As I am hoping to use announcements to push out my daily agenda - a scheduling feature would be great! Thank you for making this user friendly. Those of us in 100% Virtual are relying on Seesaw as our one stop for everything - thank you!
It would be so useful and highly needed to have a way to schedule announcements in the journal. We have other teachers in our Seesaw platform like Art and music that need to post for various classes. The need to be able to post at a scheduled time when they have class. I also need it as the regular ed. teacher too. It would be appreciated by many educators.
As a 100% online distance learning teacher, it would be so helpful to be able to create announcements, then be able to have them post at scheduled times throughout the week. There are times where I am Zooming for hours at a time, and would like to have announcements I can post for the rest of my class. Please make scheduling announcements a priority. Thank you
YES!! For those of us who are 100% distance learning, it would be SUPER helpful to have a scheduled announcement feature as well as being able to send announcements just to individual students.
I have a 1/2 Combo class. I would love to be able to send an announcement to just the 1st or just the 2nd-grade families with 1 click rather than having to resend the same announcement one at a time to 12 different families because the program only lets you send to all families or 1 family.
YES PLEASE. It is so great that we can schedule activities, please allow us to schedule announcements as well! Teachers already work way above our work hours, it'd be nice to not have to put in the extra time on the weekend to send out announcements for parents/students that they will need for the week.
A calendar view of messages would also be great. For me, at least, messages should be the newest at the top. Scrolling down and down and down to view messages is time-consuming.
A SEARCH area to search for assignments by name would be nice, too, still scrolling.
It is an amazing platform but I keep finding things that would be great if they were different.
Is there a way to schedule announcements or journal posts? I love being able to schedule out the assignments but don't see a way to schedule other posts.
I definitely wish we could schedule announcements to go out when we would like instead of instantly.
I also think having the newest at the top rather than the bottom. It makes more sense to see the newest rather than the first thing ever posted. It is confusing for families.

Thank you all for sharing your feedback! We are definitely tracking scheduling announcements and messages closely as we think of product improvements.
I would also love to have a calendar view for Announcements - click on a day to see the announcements posted on that day

Yes! And a schedule for posts (Posting to student journals)!
GREAT IDEA AND USE OF A COMMUNICATION TOOL
Very much needed feature...waiting for an upgrade in this regard.

I totally agree! We need a way to schedule announcements and student posts!

Any new developments on this idea? We are excited for the possibility to schedule DAILY and WEEKLY announcements!

Yes please! This would make workflow so much easier!
I would love to have the ability to schedule announcements! That would help so much with planning and workflow.
Yes! ClassDojo has this feature already. Very disappointed when I switched over.

I would be awesome if we could schedule announcements with a calendar feature

Yes, Tolendzki, I agree, having the newest on top would be VERY helpful! Thank you for adding that note to this stream.
