Creating a Group for New Enrollments
To communicate with parents of students who will start at your school later in the year, you can create a work group in Ziber Team. This allows you to share updates and information with future parents, even before their child is assigned to a class group.
Summary
This article explains how to set up a dedicated group for new or future students and how to manage communication with their parents in advance.
