How We Communicate

A person holds a smartphone while a laptop displays a website on a desk.

Our district uses ParentSquare for school communication, primarily with email, text, and app notifications. ParentSquare automatically syncs with our Student Information System to generate an account for each parent, using their preferred email address and phone number. We encourage parents to access their accounts so they can download the mobile app and update their preferences for when and how they are notified.

ParentSquare is a safe, secure, and modern approach to communication and collaboration between school and home.
