The Message Center collects all your messages, including process alerts and notices.

  • Process Alerts are sent automatically based on processes in Campus, such as records transfer or responses to behavior referrals.
  • State, District and School notices are messages sent to all users through User Communication.
  • Messages are sent to specific users, such as reminders and updates, through Messenger

Sort your messages using the Sort by dropdown list. Options are:

  • Sticky - sticky messages are at the top, followed by other messages sorted by date.
  • Date (newest) - messages sorted with most recent at the top.
  • Date (oldest) - messages sorted with earliest at the top. 

Filter the messages in your inbox by clicking the All Items, Process Alerts or Notices buttons at the top.

New Messages

New messages have an orange New indicator that disappears when you read the message. 

The orange number icon indicates how many messages you have. In the example above, the teacher has 1 new Announcement. 

Messages with the yellow post-it icon are designated as "sticky,"  which means they appear at the top of you inbox and you can't delete them. These messages are given an end date when they're created, at which point they disappear from your inbox.

To view a message, click on the blue link. The message opens in the Campus Tools.
