Can a Parent Observer see their student's Inbox messages?

Question

Just what the subject says. We have a parent who is an observer on her student's account. She says at her prior school they could see Inbox messages. I am guessing the teachers at the prior school included parents on every message.

Thanks,

greg

Hello @greg_hampton, I hope you're having a great day!  I can only assume that you are K12 since you're asking about parents.  You are correct.  They can see the inbox messages that they are included in!  You can't see my personal email since you don't have access to my account, parents can't see messages that they aren't included in.  As a former K12 teacher, I included the parents on EVERY message I sent!  It was more for my protection than anything else.
