Make opt-in to receiving emails required when registering so they will be able to receive communications . Should Not be their choice. We need to be able to contact them.
Many of our parents don't see the opt-in to emails tab when registering online. They can't add it later so it's a pain to fix it so we can communicate with them. Emails should always be automatically allowed.
I agree, we have multiple families that do not opt in and then can't figure out why they don't receive the emails.
