Automated Prenda Weekly Progress Reports
Every Monday, WebRun opens Prenda, pulls each student's lesson completions and mastery notes from the past week, drafts a personalized progress email for every family in Gmail, and posts your guide a Slack notice when the drafts are ready to review and send.
How do I send parents a weekly progress update automatically?
WebRun reviews every student's Prenda progress each Monday, pulls lesson completions, mastery scores, and guide notes for the week, and drafts a parent friendly update for every family in Gmail. It groups multi student households into one email and posts a Slack count of drafts ready, so guides can review and send a personal update in minutes.
- Every family gets a personal weekly update without the guide writing each one by hand
- Multi student households get one combined email instead of several
- No student's week goes unreported to their family
Built for microschool guides · learning pod founders · homeschool co op leaders · Prenda guides

Questions, answered
Will parents get these emails automatically?
No. WebRun only drafts each family's progress email in Gmail, it never sends on its own. Your guide reviews and hits send, so every message that reaches a parent has a human check first.
How does it decide what to include?
It reads each student's lesson completions, mastery scores, and guide notes straight from Prenda for the past week, so the summary matches what actually happened in their pod.
What happens if a family has more than one enrolled student?
Their updates are grouped into a single email, so a household with two or three kids in the pod gets one combined report instead of several.
