How to make specific contacts to go directly to voicemail?

[Fidget_eep]

How do I send specific contacts to voicemail? I don't want to block the calls but I don't want to have my phone ring 20 times a day (its from a school district for substitute teaching). I have tried to see if I could just change the ringtone to silent but that doesn't work either.

I think there's an IGNORE list somewhere in there... But in any case, doesn't the Block list just send the calls to voicemail? It doesn't actually block them from calling (this is a phone feature, not a network feature).

On my note 3, blocking a caller would have it sent directly to voicemail
