Permission slips parents actually return
Forms parents fill inside Gmail. See which parents responded, and remind the rest before the deadline — no phone calls.
Sound familiar?
- ✕A field-trip slip goes to 150 parents — 60 reply in the first week
- ✕Three days before the deadline, 90 are still outstanding
- ✕You start calling parents one by one, and the trip nearly gets cancelled
The old way vs. the Formailo way
Stop chasing. Start collecting.
Before Formailo

What schools see

“Permission slips inside the email mean no more “it’s in my child’s bag”. Parents just tap and sign.”
“I can see exactly which five families to follow up with — instead of calling the whole class list.”
