Using Mail Merge to Send Bulk Email

If you are wanting to send mass communication to families and not use a template in TVS, you can use mail merge.

Step 1 is to create an excel document with student/family email addresses & any other personal information that you want to include in your message. For example: names, usernames, passwords, grades etc. Word will call this document a "mailing list". You can download the Omnibus report here if you need a way to get student/family emails. 

Step 2 is to open a Word document. This document can be blank, or it can be the letter that you want to send. If it is blank, then you will need to type your letter. Then, follow the instructions linked below.

*If you have trouble following the instructions linked below, then use the step-by-step mail merge wizard built into Word. Open Word, click mailings>start mail merge>step-by-step mail merge wizard
