ParentSquare & StudentSquare

• One method is a post that would only go to your school’s “feed” in the app or web portal.
  • Your school or teacher also could choose to send that post to families and students in the form of a text or email.
• Staff can choose to send a private message to one or more users.
  • For example, a school nurse might text you to ask a question about administering your student’s medication.
• The third method is a “smart alert” sent at the district and school level — things like the district newsletter, messages from the superintendent and messages about back-to-school nights.
  • They can be sent via text, email or phone call.
• The final category is an “urgent smart alert.”
  • These messages will be sent via text, email and phone call and include inclement weather notifications and health and safety issues.

Tips

• If you’re receiving too many notifications, try changing to “digest” setting, meaning you’ll only receive one condensed message in the evening.
• You can choose to receive messages via email, text, voice and/or the app. While you can opt out of any of these methods of communication, please note that the district has the discretion to override opt-outs for messages and alerts deemed urgent or important, including health and safety situations and attendance.
