- To add a new contact, click Add New on the right-hand side. Alternatively, you can click the pencil icon below an existing contact to modify it.
- For Relationship, select Emergency – ALERT Cell (text).
- Enter the area code of the contact’s phone number in the Area Code field, and the rest of the phone number in the Phone Number field.
- This number will receive SMS texts during emergencies. It should be the student’s mobile number. The name fields don’t need to match the student’s name.
