have parent contact list easily downloadable
I just completed getting all the contact information for the parents of my daughter's class for her upcoming birthday party. Doing so, I discovered that the information available on the parent directory is different from that shown when clicking on the individual parents so I used both resources. In the end, I had a parent list with a phone number or e-mail for 20/23 parents but it was very tedious.
Very soon, I will have to do the same for my son for his birthday party. It would be really nice if there was a way to easily download parent contact lists to a CSV.
Thanks!

At the moment, we are holding off on this. But it does exist for schools. Feel free to ask your school to give you that CSV.

Thank you for your response. I have asked the school to provide parent list information and they are not willing to do so because of concerns of unintentionally giving over privileged information. Does the school see the exact same information (only publicly available) that I do if they were to send me a CSV?
I will add a couple secondary request/suggestion if a CSV is not in the works. If the formatting of the information is going to be changed, please consider doing the following during those changes:
a) Including the information that is shown when clicking on individual parents in the directory
b) Having the directory be in a simpler format (so it would be easier) to copy-paste.Thanks again for considering.
