Congratulations if you are watching this video! It means that your school is using ParentSquare. You may be asking yourself what ParentSquare is. ParentSquare is a safe, secure, and modern approach to communication and collaboration between school and home. It is a central hub for all district, school, grade level, class, and group notifications about your children. School communication comes right to your fingertips in a way that is convenient to you, whether it be email, text, or app notification. You will also receive texts or voice calls for urgent alerts and reminders.
You should have received an invitation from ParentSquare via email or text asking you to activate your account. You can also request another activation invitation with the email or phone number that you provided to your child's school at parentsquare.com or on the app. If you don't remember the information on file at your child's school, please fill out the join your school form to send a request to your child's school to add you to ParentSquare today.
ParentSquare also has easy-to-use apps for iOS and Android phones that can be downloaded from the Apple App Store or Google Play Store. Once logged in, you'll see your custom ParentSquare feed. This page shows all information related to your children, including any school-wide, grade-level, class, or group-specific information. No more need to search through emails, school flyers, or multiple websites to find important information. Prefer text messages over email? No problem! From your account page, you can update your notification preferences so information is coming how and when you'd like it. Language settings can also be changed so information is coming in your preferred language.
ParentSquare is great at increasing collaboration and helps you get involved in your school communities. You will automatically receive information from the school office, your kids' classes, and any groups you or your kids belong to. You may also join a public group within the school and participate with just a click of a button. ParentSquare allows you to sign up to bring in an item or RSVP for an event quickly and easily. No more handouts and permission slips lost at the bottom of backpacks! You can also comment on and appreciate posts to show your school community support. Using ParentSquare, you can also chat directly with a teacher or staff member using the message feature. This keeps all communication in one place without the need for additional directories or email addresses. We also have a personalized calendar to keep you up-to-date with school events and our photo library stores all photos that have been shared over the course of the year.
Thank you for joining ParentSquare! Register your account, download the app, and start interacting with your school community today.
