Re: Directory Information -- Follow Up Question

All of our school communication is done through email, so every family
is required to give us one email address during online registration.
(They cannot submit their completed registration until an email has been
added.) Most families give us an email for each parent, but only one is
required.

The emails are then imported into Outlook, and I create distribution
lists by homeroom teacher, so teachers can quickly and easily
communicate with their parents.

submitting their personal email addresses for inclusion in the =20
directory?

Thanks again for the many quick responses.
