RSVP to an event
When an event asks for an RSVP, your answer tells the organizer how many people to expect — and you can change it any time before the event starts. Before you start Any parent, tea…
CC school staff on an event
There's no separate "CC" step in Bloomz — copying in the front office, a co-teacher, or an instructional aide uses the same Invite picker you use to choose who the event goes to. C…
Send a reminder for an event or sign-up
A day before the deadline, give everyone who hasn't responded yet a nudge — Send Reminder pings only the families still missing from your RSVP or sign-up list, not everyone who alr…
Sign-ups
Create a volunteer sign-up sheet
Instead of a paper sign-up on the classroom door, build a Volunteer Help sheet in Bloomz: list what you need — snacks, chaperones, a driver — and families claim a slot from their p…
Sign up for a volunteer slot
When a teacher posts a Volunteer Help sheet, claim any open slot in a couple of taps — no reply-all email, no paper sheet to lose. Before you start Anyone on the class or group can…
Limit sign-ups per person
By default, one motivated family could claim every slot on a Volunteer Help task. A per-person limit caps how many slots one family can hold on a single task, so more families get …
Set a sign-up cutoff date, or close sign-ups early
Give yourself a firm number to work with — a cutoff freezes sign-ups automatically at a moment you choose, or you can close them the instant you have enough. You can set the cutoff…
Put one sign-up sheet on several class calendars
If you teach more than one class, a single Volunteer Help sheet can post to every class at once, sharing one pool of slots — no need to build a duplicate sheet per class. Before yo…
Conferences
Publish conference slots for families to book
Offer parent-teacher conference times once, and let families pick their own slot — no sign-up sheet on the door, no back-and-forth email. Bloomz builds the slots from your hours, f…

Request an interpreter for your conference

Forms
Send a form to families
Bloomz Forms lets a teacher or school admin build a custom form — a permission slip, a supply request, an interest survey — and send it to a class or group for families to fill out…
Fill out and submit a form
When your school sends a form — a permission slip, a survey, a supply request — you fill it in and submit right from the app. Before you start You can fill out a form the moment it…
Export form responses to CSV
Once families start answering a form, pull every response into a spreadsheet with one export — useful for a headcount, a permission-slip roster, or anything you need to sort, filte…
Get notified when a form is answered
You don't have to keep checking a form's Responses screen to see if anyone has answered — Bloomz notifies the form's creator automatically every time a new family submits. Before y…
Sign a form
