ParentSquare
Welcome to ParentSquare
Connection
ParentSquare is our communication platform that connects families and staff through phone, text, email, and the ParentSquare app.
You'll receive important district and school messages about emergencies, closures, news, and other updates—all in one convenient place.
Activate
If you haven't activated your ParentSquare account, you will receive an email or text invitation with a link to join. If you missed the invitation, follow the Registration instructions below:
To register for ParentSquare, follow this link: https://www.parentsquare.com/signin. Under Register, use the email address or phone number associated with your Family Access Account in Skyward. The prompts will guide you through the registration steps.
Preferences
When we send messages, ParentSquare delivers them through text, email, and the app. You can set your preferences to receive messages instantly or as a daily digest, which means all of your messages in one communication at the end of the day.
For urgent alerts (like emergencies or school closures), the district will override these settings to ensure you receive critical information immediately.
Important: Keep SCHOOL ALERTS enabled to receive emergency notifications.
ParentSquare App
Your ParentSquare account is automatically created using the contact information we have on file in Skyward. To activate your account, use the same phone number or email address you provided to the school.
While the ParentSquare app isn't required, we encourage you to download it for convenient access to messages on your phone.
La Porte Community Alerts
With the addition of ParentSquare, we will use our new communication platform to announce delays and cancellations. The best way to stay informed is to ensure your information is up to date in Skyward.
For grandparents, babysitters, or community members who are not in Skyward but need to be aware of weather-related delays or cancellations, please sign up for La Porte Community Alerts.
