Emergency contacts need a phone number and home address. Many schools ask for at least four; Action Required reminds you when some are missing.

Steps​

  1. On My Day, tap School Records.
  2. Tap Emergency.
    The Emergency list for your child
  3. Tap +, then Emergency Contact.
  4. Enter an Email Address or Phone Number and tap Next. If User Found appears, tap Request.
  5. Fill in First Name, Last Name, Relationship, Phone Number and the home address (Address 1, City, State, Zip). Add a workplace if you like.
  6. Tap Save.

The contact shows as (Pending) until the director approves.

Tips​

  • An emergency contact is also an approved pickup.
  • To edit a contact's details, tap them, change the fields and tap Save.

Troubleshooting​

  • "Phone number is required" or "Address is required". Emergency contacts need both.
  • "Missing Emergency Contacts" in Action Required. Tap it to jump to your child's School Records and add more.
