Getting Started with Smore for Teams

Collaboration between educators and professionals helps build meaningful relationships that drive school improvement and student success.

The Essentials 🎒

🗂 Share templates & collaborate on newsletters by creating a Shared Folder.

📝 Work together in real time to create the most up-to-date Weekly Newsletter.

🏆 Follow Smore’s best recommendations for school and district-wide collaboration.

🗂 Shared Folders

A Shared Folder empowers your team to delegate tasks, share templates, and foster consistent, streamlined communication.

Creating a Folder

Click “Newsletters” in the top toolbar.
Select “Create a new folder.”
Click “Add Newsletters” and choose which ones you’d like to share.

Sharing a Folder

Click “Share this folder.”
Select members to invite.

💡 Tip: For a Template Folder, set members as Viewers so they can duplicate templates without editing them. For collaborative newsletters, set members as Editors so they can make changes directly.

📝 Live Collaboration

With the new Editor, multiple members of the same Team Account can work on a newsletter at the same time.

If another member is editing, their profile picture and status will appear at the top-right corner of the Editor (next to the “Learn” button).
🟢 Green circle = currently working on the newsletter.
⚪ Grey circle = worked on the newsletter in the past few days.
