TalkingPoints is a family engagement and communication platform designed to help teachers, schools, and families stay connected through two-way messaging that automatically translates conversations into more than 150 languages. Teachers can send individual, group, or class-wide messages, share reminders, photos, videos, polls, and documents, and communicate with families without revealing personal phone numbers. The platform helps remove language barriers, encourages meaningful family involvement, and supports stronger home-school partnerships that can improve student attendance, behavior, and academic success. TalkingPoints offers a free version for individual teachers that includes messaging, translation, media sharing, and mobile and web access, making it especially valuable for schools serving multilingual communities.
