Alexander is Launching ParentSquare

Alexander Central School District Will Soon Launch a New Communication Platform To Facilitate Stronger School-Home Connection

With ParentSquare, a “one stop shop” for school communication, parents can now receive announcements from the district and their children’s schools from the convenience of their phones, with options to specify how and when they are notified.

The Alexander Central School District will soon launch ParentSquare, a simple and collaborative school-home communication platform, to reach and engage every parent, ensuring all parents will have the opportunity to actively participate in their children’s education. By unifying multiple tools into one platform, ParentSquare provides an improved and seamless experience for parents and staff. Parents will be able to keep track of news, activities and events from all their children’s schools in one place. ParentSquare will soon be available for staff and parents to use on their computers or mobile devices.

ParentSquare’s intuitive, two-way platform will facilitate greater communication. With ParentSquare, parents will be able to enjoy pictures posted by teachers and group directors, fill out forms and permission slips, sign up for parent-teacher conferences, check grades and attendance and much more. School staff and parents can engage in both one-on-one and group messaging with real-time language translation.

ACS’s partnership with ParentSquare will enable a stronger dialogue between school and home, and will help empower everyone within the school community to stay connected and informed. For more information on ParentSquare, please visit www.parentsquare.com.
