<aside> ⚠️ In PowerSchool, parent and/or guardians are designated as “contacts.” In this tutorial, the word contacts will refer to the parents/guardians of a student.

In PowerTeacher Pro, choose the class you want to retrieve contact emails for.
After the class loads, click the “+” icon near the top right-hand corner of the screen.
In the dropdown list, click “Email.”
A pop-up window will appear, with both student names and contact names. The lefthand column is to select student emails and the righthand column is for contacts.
You can pick and choose what emails you select by clicking the checkbox to the right of any contact name.
Or, if you want to copy contact emails for all students in the class, you can check the box directly under “Contacts.” This will select all emails for copying.
Then, click “Copy Emails” at the bottom of the pop-up window. This will copy all emails you selected to your computer clipboard.
You can now go to Outlook, create a new email, and use the paste function to paste these emails into the BCC field of the email.
<aside> 🚨 When sending an email to multiple contacts, it is best practice to use the BCC (Blind Carbon Copy) field so email addresses are hidden from the recipients!
