Smore Newsletters
Prior to 2021-2022, many individual accounts were created. Based on requests for additional accounts and current expenditures, the district has acquired licensing for all staff.
A district-specific login link will be sent to staff in order to join our licensed version of the program.
Existing users should use their current account credentials to log in. We are looking into additional options for migrating accounts, however, any previously created work should come over with your account. Note that this will not necessarily be true if a non-district account was used.
Staff who are totally new users of Smore should use the Google login option.
Mailing Lists in Smore
While the option exists to create a mailing list in Smore, we request that you do NOT create any at this time. Please use existing tools to actually send a newsletter, preferably the Messenger option in Infinite Campus. There is no advantage to trying to maintain multiple mailing lists for anyone. If you believe that a parent contact (for instance) is not accurate or up to date in Infinite Campus, please work with your school office to have it corrected or updated.
Licensed Buildings/Users: All Buildings / All Staff.
