Communication Tools
Stay Connected with ParentSquare
We’re excited to introduce ParentSquare — a powerful new communication tool that makes it easier than ever to stay connected with your child’s school and the district. We believe strong communication between families and schools is key to student success. That’s why we’re making it a top priority to provide timely, clear, and useful information — and to ensure your voice is heard every step of the way.
With ParentSquare, you can:
-
Receive school and district messages, calendar updates, and emergency alerts.
-
Communicate directly with teachers and staff in two-way conversations.
-
Sign forms, complete surveys, and RSVP to events easily.
-
Choose how and when you receive updates — by text, email, or app — in your preferred language.
-
Get messages automatically translated into over 100 languages.
No extra steps are needed to sign up! If you’re listed as your child’s custodial parent in PowerSchool and your contact information is current, you’ll be connected automatically. Just make sure your contact info is up to date before the end of summer. Need help? Contact your school at any time to update your details.
