School2Calendar
School emails → your calendar
Made for parents who are doing their best

Stop reading school emails twice. Just forward them.

You already get the emails — newsletters, reminders, "don't forget" notes from three different teachers. The information is there. You just don't have time to turn it into a plan.

School2Calendar reads the email, finds every date, time, and "wear this / bring that" detail, and puts it straight on your calendar. One forward. Done.

Sound familiar?

It's 9:41 pm. You finally open the newsletter.

Buried in paragraph four — tomorrow is Spirit Day. You had no idea. Again.

The problem

School emails aren’t hard. They’re just endless.

You’re juggling work, dinner, and bedtime—while two schools send fifteen emails a week. The information you need is always there. It’s just never where your eyes land.

The details are buried

“Spirit Day is Friday” sits between fundraising links, policy reminders, and five paragraphs you’ve read before.

It costs time you don’t have

You can keep up—if you’re willing to spend an hour or two each week turning emails into your own reminders.

And the penalty feels personal

The worst part isn’t the calendar. It’s your kid looking at you like you forgot on purpose.

What you actually want

A calendar that quietly fills itself with the stuff that matters: spirit days, minimum days, field trips, classroom activities, gift days, games, practices.

What School2Calendar does

  1. You forward the email.
  2. We extract the event details (using your saved context).
  3. We write it to your calendar.
  4. You glance at your calendar and move on with your day.
How it works

One forward address. One habit.

No new app to check. No inbox rules you have to babysit. Just a personal address on school2calendar.com.

1) Connect your calendar

Google Calendar via OAuth, or iCloud Calendar via CalDAV. Pick where your school events should go.

2) Forward the email

Send it to inbound+<yourToken>@school2calendar.com. Forward manually or set up an auto-forwarding rule.

3) It shows up on your calendar

We extract event candidates and write them to your calendar. When we’re unsure, we’ll err on the side of caution.

Alternatives

You can solve this four ways.

Three of them quietly take something from you: time, money, or peace of mind.

Do it yourself

Read every email. Scan for dates. Translate “minimum day” into a real reminder. Repeat next week.

Copy/paste into ChatGPT

It can help, but it’s still manual work: copy, paste, interpret, then create the event yourself.

Hire someone

Effective—if you want to pay for an inbox assistant and trust them with the details.

Miss it

The cheapest option… until it isn’t. The costume you didn’t have. The form you didn’t sign. The day you didn’t know about.

The fifth way

Forward the email once and let School2Calendar keep the calendar honest. Not perfect magic. Just a better default.

Trust

Built for your family's schedule, not a demo.

When the stakes are "did my kid show up in the right outfit," reliability isn't optional.

Nothing gets lost

Every email is saved the moment it arrives. If something goes wrong during processing, we just try again.

No duplicate events

Forwarded the same email twice? No problem. We detect duplicates so your calendar stays clean.

Safe by default

We never send invites to other people unless you ask. If we're unsure about a detail, we mark it tentative.

Your data stays yours

We only see emails you forward to us. Your data is isolated, and your credentials are encrypted. Full details in our Privacy Policy.

FAQ

Quick answers

The stuff you’ll ask before you trust it with Thursday.

Does School2Calendar read my inbox?
No. We only see the specific emails you forward to us. We never connect to or scan your inbox.
Will it accidentally invite the whole class?
Nope. Attendee invites are off by default. Events go on your calendar and nobody else's.
What if the email is vague or missing a time?
We use the context you've saved (like your timezone and your kid's grade) to fill in gaps. When we're genuinely unsure, we mark it tentative so you know to double-check.
What calendars does it support?
Google Calendar and Apple Calendar (iCloud). If your calendar app reads from either, you're covered.

Email hello@school2calendar.com from your account email and we’ll send a fresh magic link plus your current setup details.
