We recommend setting up notifications in FastDirect so you know when someone has sent you a message. You can choose e-mail or text notifications – or both! To setup notifications:
- After logging in and arriving at your home page, click the gray box at the top titled “view/edit parent information”.
- Ensure that your name, address, phone number, and e-mail address are correct.
- In the right-hand column, check the box next to “Email” to receive e-mail notifications when you receive a FastDirect message.
- Check the box next to “allow Email forwarding of FDmail” to receive full text of the FD message directly in your e-mail account.
- In the right-hand column, check the box next to “Text” to receive text alerts of new FastDirect messages.
- To enable text alerts, you must also check the box “I allow OLS to send text messages…”
- Scroll down to the bottom of the screen and click the gray box titled “save changes”.
