PARENTS: Need access to Parent Square?

We sync with the school databases nightly. The day after the change is made at your school, you should be able to log out and log back in to ParentSquare to see your updated information.

ParentSquare is designed to keep parents informed and facilitate participation at school, providing a safe way for the school principal, teachers, staff, and parents to send and receive school and class information, share pictures and files, see calendar items, sign up to volunteer, and much more... all in one centralized place!

Videos and training modules available via the links below are designed to help you become familiar with ParentSquare. This will also assist you in setting up your communications preferences.

All school, grade level and classroom information will now be sent to your computer or phone via email and/or text or you can download the free App.

Here’s what you can do with ParentSquare:

- Receive messages from the school via email, text or app notification

- Choose to receive information as it comes or all at once at 6pm daily

- Communicate in your preferred language

- Comment on school postings to engage in your school community

- Direct message teachers, staff and other parents

- Participate in group messages

- Sign up for parent-teacher conferences with smart online technology

- Sign forms & permission slips, receive report cards, sign up to volunteer and more all from your phone or web portal
