@Richardson1 Parents using the mobile PowerSchool app can have School Announcements as a push notification. They can also have School Announcements setup via email notification. Under Email Notification within their parent portal, it can be selected.

Hi @Richardson1
The Push notifications are limited to Grades and Attendance only and the setting in the portal under the Email Notification is specific to Email.
Email notifications are configured via the portal and are standard email notifications that get sent around midnight to 3 am-ish time frame. Push notifications that are sent within a few minutes ONLY that supports Grades and Attendance.
Hi Saffiya,
I am wondering if you know of a way to change the time the email notifications are sent? As you previously replied, ours are sent after midnight. Because they are being sent at that time, the announcements are never current, as I have not yet posted announcements for the day by that time. If I could get the emails to send later in the day, parents would receive current announcements for that day. Any suggestions?
Hi @jjolmarq
There is no way to change the time the email notifications are sent as this Hard coded and canāt be changed. As the emails go out after 12am you should ensure the event spans to the next day (making the event the day before, not the day of)
