Dear Families,
Did you know the free ParentSquare app is the easiest way to stay up to date with your child’s school? 

Currently, 43% of families have downloaded the app.  Let's see if we can get more connected, as the app gives you some added benefits. While we still can send emails, phone calls, and texts, using the app gives you extra perks:
  • ⚡ Instant Alerts on Your Phone Screen: Get urgent updates (like snow days or late buses) popped right onto your screen so you never miss important news.
  • 💬 Easy Messaging with Teachers: Message your student’s teachers directly—just like sending a text—with automatic translation into your preferred language.
  • 📋 Quick Forms & Sign-Ups: Fill out field trip permission slips, sign up for parent-teacher conferences, or volunteer in just a few taps.
  • 📸 Everything in One Place: Easily toggle between all of your children to search and view announcements, event calendars, permission slips, and photos in one central spot—without digging through old text messages or a crowded email inbox.
🔕 Want Fewer Interruptions? Choose the Daily Digest! If you prefer not to get alerts throughout the day, ParentSquare lets you customize your notification preferences:
  • Daily Digest (Recommended for fewer alerts): ParentSquare holds non-urgent posts and delivers them to you in one single summary email or text each evening (around 6:00 PM).
  • Instant: Delivers posts to your email, text, or app immediately as they are published.
  • Emergency Alerts Always Come Through: Urgent announcements (like snow days or emergency alerts) will automatically bypass the Digest setting so you'll always get critical news right away!
