Tips for using ParentSquare

• Start by clicking ‘New Post’ button to send any message to your class/grade. Send plain messages, events, volunteer requests or share pictures and files.
• On ‘New Post’ page, use the language translation option to automatically send messages in two languages to parents: English and their home language.
• Click ‘# Notified’ next to the eye at the bottom of the post to make sure your post reached every single student family in your class. If a parent does not have an email address, they are automatically sent a text. Parents can also download the app.
• Have questions? Click the question mark in the top right corner of the desktop version or the Help tab on the app (tap the triple bar icon at the top left), and select ‘Help Articles’ to find answers to most of your questions.
