Why this control matters

Family Message Routing is a written control for family message routing. It shows what was checked and who owns the next step.

It matters because a sensitive message waits behind a scheduling request.

Open the record

Start with the family message queue. Record the source, date, owner, and next action.

The assistant prepares; the program owner keeps decisions that change a learner, a payment, access, or a promise.

A worked example

A parent reports a concern. The queue records urgency, owner, and response time. The record shows the original state, the change, and the confirmation.

Close and review

Close only when the source, approval, action, and destination evidence agree.

Sample one ordinary case, one exception, and one correction each week.
