To create a new message, click Messages from the main menu, then Create New Message and the following screen will appear:

Select the user, users, or group of users that you want to send the message to. Notice in the list that you can send to just about any combination of users, including the Entire District.

You may ask what happens if you have duplicates in your recipients, for example, All Principals and also Campus Anderson, which logically would indicate the Principal at Anderson would get the message twice. The sytem will make sure that no matter how you make your selection of recipients, only one copy of the message will be shown when that user logs in. Keep in mind that if your recipient list includes a group you belong to, you'll also receive the message.

After making your recipient list, type in the subject of the message, then type in the message itself, and click OK.

That's all there is to broadcasting a message! You may want to avoid overuse, however, since there isn't a "delete message" option. Also keep in mind that once a message has been created and sent, you can't edit or recall the message.
