Our school made it clear no invites in school unless every kid is invited. Email seems easiest.

I've seen emails, paper invitations tucked into the folders by teachers, and paper invitations in the mail.

The thing about emails is that, if you are at a high ESOL school (as we are), you might not hear back from some of the families if you only email. One family last year tried sending home bilingual invitations but didn't get much traction, either.

We send paper invites with our email for RSVP. Not very complicated.

OP here- Thank you everyone for your advice. We don't have everyone's emails, but I will try to get the ones I don't have and do an email / evite. It just feels strange not to be doing paper invites since that is what we are used to. I suppose it is time to get with the times! Thanks again.

Evite? or just email?

Do you have a directory?
