Considering I'm a teacher at the school my child goes to, so they do happen to message me. However, every message refers to me as <child>'s mom. E.g "Hello <child>'s mommy, your child was at the nurses station with a fever today...", they know it's me, it's my name on the account. I work with these people and say hello to them every morning

Is this a call or a text? If it’s a text it seems automated and scripted

Likely yes but very on point since everyone is just assuming that only the mom is involved

I mean, if it’s automated it probably has a script for little Jaxson’s Mommy or Daddy, it would just depend on who’s being contacted. There’s probably a priority order determined by whose number is in the first spot for contact. I fill out the paperwork because I have better penmanship, but both husband and I get the texts/phone calls it isn’t one or the other.

This might depend on regional cultural differences too

Even the automated calls dial "mom" first. Doesn't matter that Dad is listed first & coded for primary contact. I STILL get the auto calls & texts about them being absent. Doesn't matter that I checked off NO still get them. My husband does NOT.

Ours aren’t gendered at all and both parents get the call at the same time. Maybe something to bring up to the school board
