My Feed

A feed your families love, on a network your school controls

My Feed gives your community the scrollable experience they already know: photos, celebrations, reminders and news. It lives in your school’s own branded app, your staff control it, and it is never on the public web or in search results.

It feels familiar, and it’s built differently

Families are used to quick, visual updates, and that habit isn’t going away. School Courier brings the format to school communication and leaves out the ad networks, the algorithm and the public drama. What’s left is your school’s life, shared by your staff and seen by your families.

Rich posts
Up to 25 photos per post, published in seconds: the field-day recap, the championship, the science-fair winners.
Scheduled & pinned posts
Write a post now and publish it later, or pin a key update so it stays at the top.
Writing Help
Four polish modes (more detail, clearer & warmer, shorter, grammar), then translation into 10 languages with one tap.
Comments & replies
Families can join in underneath. Parent and student comments wait for a leader’s approval.
Announcements that land
Posts arrive as push notifications on iOS and Android, even when the app is closed.
Google Forms
Attach a permission slip or class form to a post and collect it without paper.

Your logo, your colors, your school’s name on the icon. Families open your app, not a vendor’s.

My Groups screen: joined public groups with mute bells, and a private group with Request to Join

Every family follows exactly what matters to them

My Feed is organized by groups: classrooms, teams and clubs. A parent follows their children’s worlds, a grandparent follows the varsity schedule, a staff member follows their own building. Every feed is personal, so nothing important gets buried.

Public groups
One-tap subscribe to open groups like “School News.”
Private groups
For teams, classrooms and committees. Join by 8-digit passcode, or by a request a leader approves.
Per-group alert controls
Mute any group with one tap of the bell.
Multi-school
Families with children at different schools switch without signing in again.

Roles keep the right people in the right lanes

Publishing is a staff privilege, not a free-for-all. Teachers post to their classrooms, coaches to their teams, leaders to their groups, administrators school-wide.

Want a classroom parent or a student helping out? Make them a Contributor. What they write waits for a leader’s approval before your community sees it.

  • Group leaders approve private-group join requests in the app
  • Students and parents can never message one another
  • Every message is tracked and reviewable by administrators
Four roles in every group
Role Posts Comments
Owner One per group Instantly Instantly
Leader Teachers, coaches, advisors Instantly Instantly
Contributor Classroom parents, team parents, students After approval After approval
Member Families and followers No After approval

Owners can change any of this group by group, or apply a preset: Trusted, Moderated, or Read & react. Leaders get Approve and Deny in the app, a Pending approvals list, and a reminder if something is left waiting.

A week on My Feed

  1. Monday

    The classroom update

    Ms. Brooks posts photos from the science fair to her classroom group, with a Google Form attached for next month’s field-trip permission slips.

  2. Wednesday

    The big win

    The tennis team clinches the conference title. The coach posts the photo from the courts before the bus leaves the parking lot.

  3. Thursday

    The booster drop

    The Booster Club announces fresh spirit wear in the store. Recognized supporters get the credit, and the school keeps the revenue.

  4. Friday

    The reminder that lands

    Early dismissal at 1:30. The office posts to School News and every following family gets the push notification, with no email digging required.

Can anyone on the internet see our feed?
Your feed never appears on the public web — no links, no search results, no embeds, no scraping. Inside the app, your school sets the visibility: public groups (like “School News”) are readable by anyone who downloads your app — useful for boosters, grandparents, and prospective families — while private groups are strictly gated by passcode or leader approval. Want everything behind a gate? Your app can require your school’s access code, so nothing is visible without it.
Who can post to the feed?
Staff and group leaders publish instantly — teachers to their classrooms, coaches to their teams, administrators school-wide. When you want a classroom parent, team parent, or student helping out, the Contributor role lets them submit posts that go live only after a leader or the group owner approves. Nothing reaches your community without a staff sign-off.
Is there a comment section?
Yes — inside the group, and on your terms. Members can comment on a post, and comments from parents and students wait for a leader or the owner to approve them before anyone else sees them. The post’s author can switch comments off on any individual post, and a group owner can turn them off for a whole group. There are no comment threads on the public web and no strangers wandering in: everyone in a thread is someone your school admitted.
What if a teacher isn’t a confident writer?
Writing Help is built into the composer: four polish modes (more detail, clearer & warmer, shorter, grammar) clean up a draft in seconds, and a fifth translates a post into any of 10 languages so every family reads it in their own.
How do families control what they see?
Each user follows only the classrooms, teams & clubs they choose, and can mute any group’s notifications with one tap of the bell. A parent with a senior on the football team and a second-grader in Ms. Brooks’ class sees exactly those worlds — nothing else.
Does this replace our public Facebook page?
Many schools keep a public page for outward-facing marketing and move day-to-day family communication into School Courier — where there are no algorithms deciding who sees a post, and no strangers in the comments. What belongs to your community stays in your community.
