ParentSquare
Welcome to ParentSquare - your easy parent communication tool for the 2023-2024 school year! To get started, access ParentSquare by clicking the icon in the Google Apps grid of your Inbox (near the Frontline app!). Next, accept the Terms of Service and confirm your account settings for first time access.
Here's a quick guide to start communicating with parents:
Click 'New Post' and select your audience.
Add a Subject line and Description - get creative with images and videos!
Click 'Post Now' or "Preview' first.
Use the default 'Send at user preferred time' time for routine messages. For urgent ones, choose "Send instantly."
Parents can manage their notification preferences. They can control whether they get a daily digest of all Posts from the school/classroom at specific times of the day or whether they receive all Posts right away!
Try sending a Post to your families! Here's a great video from Parent Square
