BulletinBulletin for schools & PTAs
Every family, informed. No marketing platform required.
Parent newsletters, closure notices, athletic schedules, and PTA announcements — sent in minutes by the staff and volunteers who keep your school running.
For front offices and volunteer boards
Parents shouldn't have to hunt for school news.
A snow closure. The spring concert. Picture day. A fundraiser goal update. The principal's monthly letter.
School communication is written by busy people — front-office staff, teachers, and PTA volunteers who change every year. Bulletin keeps it simple enough that anyone can send, and affordable enough that a PTA budget covers the whole year.
Use Bulletin to send:
- Parent newsletters and principal's letters
- School closures and schedule changes
- Athletic schedules and results
- PTO/PTA announcements and meeting notices
- Fundraising events and goal updates
- Volunteer sign-ups and reminders
Send weekly during the school year, or only when families need to know.
Email without the marketing machinery.
Create the update, choose your family list, and send. New volunteers learn it in one sitting — no training sessions, no handover headaches when board members rotate.
Office staff, teachers, and PTA volunteers together.
Give the front office, the principal, and this year's PTA board shared access with the right roles — and hand it off cleanly to next year's board. Unlimited team members. No per-seat fees.

What it costs
Priced for a PTA budget.
Bulletin never charges based on the number of contacts you store. Your cost is based on the number of emails you send.
A school community of 1,500 families receiving two updates each month uses about 36,000 sends annually — roughly $80 per year.
Your list can grow without automatically creating a larger platform bill. Start with 500 sends free — then 5,000 sends for $10, 50,000 for $90, or 500,000 for $800.
Help when you need it
Start with real support.
Bulletin offers personalized onboarding to help you import contacts, set up your account, and begin sending. Ongoing email and chat support are always included — never gated behind a higher-priced plan.
We'll help you import your family directory and get this year's volunteers set up.
Common questions
Do we need marketing or design experience to use Bulletin?
No. Bulletin is designed to make routine email communication simple. Create your message, choose your recipients, and send — without building automated campaigns or learning a complicated email marketing platform.
How much does Bulletin cost for a school or PTA?
You pay per send, not per family. A community of 1,500 families receiving two updates a month uses about 36,000 sends annually — roughly $80 per year. Start with 500 sends free.
What happens when our PTA board changes each year?
Nothing complicated. Add the new board members, adjust roles, and remove outgoing ones — all free, since Bulletin has no per-seat fees. The account, list, and history stay put.
Can we import our existing contacts?
Yes. Bulletin includes personalized onboarding and migration assistance. We'll help you import contacts from another platform or a spreadsheet and get your account up and running quickly.
Can we use a Canva design or an email created elsewhere?
Yes. Import an existing Canva design with one click, or bring in an HTML email created elsewhere. Then preview, test, and send without rebuilding your design. You can also create a clean, simple email directly in Bulletin.
What can we see after sending?
Bulletin provides essential reporting through a straightforward dashboard. After each send, review delivery rates, opens, and clicks to understand how people engaged with your message.
Keep every family in the loop.
