School Inbox Lite
Kids have no email, so the parent inbox is the family's only source of truth for what school needs. This reads school-origin mail (Google Classroom guardian summaries, PowerSchool and SwiftK12 attendance, ParentSquare, ClassDojo) and turns each message into a typed event: which child, what it is, the deadline, the action. Every event gets exactly one label and every deadline gets an owner, so nothing slips past pickup.

About
Triage school email into typed events with owners. Use when school email needs processing, the parent asks what's due or what they missed, or a deadline, permission slip, or schedule change needs extracting. A Connie Ector recipe for parent agents.
How it works
- 1Sweep the inboxSearch the window for school-origin senders: Classroom guardian summaries, PowerSchool/SwiftK12 attendance, ParentSquare digests, ClassDojo, plus any sender the parent confirmed before.
- 2Type every emailOne event per email: child, category, deadline, action. Login-walled links are never followed; they become authenticate-to-view items.
- 3Label and actExactly one label per event. Ready-for-agent items (calendar adds, reminders, known-answer RSVPs) are done immediately; ready-for-kid items become Sprout tasks only after the parent confirms.
- 4Report with ownersOne line per event: child, what, deadline, label, owner. Every deadline gets an owner; nothing is silently dropped.
