ParentSquare
ParentSquare allows us to communicate with families, staff, and students via email, text and app notifications. ParentSquare automatically generates an account for each parent/guardian, using their preferred email address and phone number. We encourage families to access their accounts and download the mobile app in order to update their information.
Change Your Drop Off and Pick Up Plans

From within the portal, parents can schedule recurring exceptions such as carpool on Wednesday only, or YMCA every day, etc. Any changes need to be made by 1pm
