Communication

ATTENDANCE COMMUNICATION:  Parents/guardians must email or send a message via Parent Square for all absences to:

abbott.attendance@cttech.org 

NOTE:  Parents may excuse the first nine (9) absences by sending a message to the above email address.  If a student is absent more than nine (9) days, a parent/guardian notification should be sent as described above.  However, this notification will not excuse the absence.  Additional specific written documentation is required, which may be sent to the above email address.  Additional attendance questions may be sent to Jonathan.nadeau@cttech.org Dean of Students.  

PARENT SQUARE - all parents and students should have separate access to Parent Square:

You should have received an invitation email or text to join ParentSquare sometime in August, and you'll click a link to activate your account. If you are a parent and the school's database (SIS) contains your contact details, you can use your email or phone number to set up your account without the invitation.

ACTION:

• Go to www.parentsquare.com/signin. You can also install the ParentSquare app and follow the prompts to sign up.

• Use Google single sign-on, your email, or your phone number to set up your account. Your email/phone number must match contact details in the school's database for this to work.

• If your contact details aren't recognized, contact your school administrator to get them added. After they update your information in their database, the new contact details will appear in ParentSquare after the next daily sync, and you will be able to create an account.

Note: After you are added to ParentSquare by your school, you will receive school communications even if you have not registered your account. However, you will need to register your account in order to participate in two-way communications and to access any confidential student-specific documents or forms.

How to Update Your Preferences Using the ParentSquare App:

1. From your home screen click the triple bar in the top left corner.

2. Click on "Preferences".

3. Click on "Notification Settings".

4. Select how you would like to be notified.
