Homeschool Fox

Homeschool Fox sends several different emails. You can turn each one on or off and pick the time of day they arrive.

All notifications live under Settings → Notifications.

Master switch

The top-level Email notifications toggle turns everything off at once. When it's off, no Homeschool Fox emails are sent (transactional emails like password resets and Stripe receipts still go through).

Daily digest

A short morning email with yesterday's activities — or a gentle nudge if nothing was logged.

Pick which days of the week you want it. Most families turn off Saturday and Sunday; leave the school days on.

Weekly summary

A weekly overview of hours logged, subjects covered, and progress toward goals. Pick the day of the week it arrives (Sunday is the default — handy for planning the week ahead).

Goal milestones

Celebratory email when a student crosses 25%, 50%, 75%, or 100% of their yearly goal.

School year end reminders

Reminders at 30, 14, and 7 days before your school year ends, with a progress summary so you have time to fill any gaps before reporting.

Behind-pace alerts

A weekly alert if a student is falling behind the expected logging pace for their yearly goal. Useful early-warning if you've had a slow stretch.

Upcoming activity reminder

An evening email listing tomorrow's scheduled activities — helpful if you build the week's schedule in advance.

Filing deadline reminders

State-specific reminders for NOI, IHIP, quarterly reports, affidavits, and other documents your state requires. You set these up from the Reports page (one reminder per document), and they show up in the notifications panel for reference.

To add or edit a filing deadline reminder:

Go to Reports
Open the document you want a reminder for
Click Set reminder

Preferred time

Pick the hour you'd like emails to arrive — early morning (7–10 AM) for planners, evening (5–7 PM) for end-of-day recaps. The time is in your local time zone.

School year settings — controls the date range the weekly summary and year-end reminders use.
State requirements — required to populate filing deadline reminders.
