ParentSquare Summer Camp is a 5-hour, self-paced training program for school staff that prepares you to be a ParentSquare champion and use ParentSquare to its highest potential.
The course will officially begin on June 22 and will close on October 9th. Activities are meant to be completed daily in the ParentSquare Academy, our interactive online Learning Management System (LMS). Each day takes about one hour to complete.
June 22 – October 9, 2026
Get ready for ParentSquare Summer Camp! Each day, you’ll explore a new topic through self-paced activities and optional live “Campfire Sessions”. In these sessions, we'll gather around the virtual campfire to focus on key features and best practices, share stories, and roast marshmallows (metaphorically, of course).
And don't forget the Bingo card – a Summer Camp favorite! Complete activities to cross off squares and be entered into a drawing for prizes.
So, pack your virtual bags, grab your s'mores supplies, and get ready to experience the ultimate summer camp adventure with ParentSquare!
