Here is a list of features and updates you should note:
- Support: Please visit Grace's FD Help Page for instructions, training videos and explanations.
- Mobile friendly: FD recently updated their menus to be formatted for viewing on smart phones and tablets.
- Updating contact information: Parents may update their phone and email contact information. Login to FD www.fastdir.com/gls . Go to View/Edit Parent Information found at the top of the home page. Please correct any data or add any missing data. The screen name and password are only accessible from the bottom of their home page by clicking Change My ScreenName or Change My Password.
- Text messages can be enabled: Parents have the option to enable messages to be sent at texts in addition to the FD message. For Parents who text more than email this would be a good feature to enable.
- Email embedded: For the last few months, a FD message sent to your email should have the message embedded in the email. This eliminates the need for a parent to login to FD to view a message.
- Lunch: Starting this fall, hot lunch orders and payments will be made online in Fast Direct. Families will be able to view balances under the FINANCE tab. More details will be shared in August.
