How We Communicate
How We Communicate
Our organization uses ParentSquare for communication, primarily with email, text and app notifications. ParentSquare automatically syncs with most Student Information Systems to generate an account for each parent, using their preferred email address and phone number. We encourage members to access their accounts so they can download the mobile app and update their preferences on when and how they are notified.
ParentSquare is a safe, secure, and modern approach to communication and collaboration between school and home.

ParentSquare allows users to customize their notifications based on notification type and select their preferred delivery method for each school. The Instant setting will send all post notifications in real-time. The Digest setting sends direct messages, alerts, and time-sensitive posts instantly, but sends all non-time sensitive posts at the end of the day, reducing the number of notifications you receive daily. (We recommend the Digest setting.) Learn more about managing notifications.

You can update your language preference for their account. Once you have done this, ParentSquare will automatically translate any communication in selected language. This translation will also occur when you send a message to a staff member. Learn more about ParentSquare translations and how to set the language preference.
