ParentSquare is a communication platform that will allow Little Falls City School District to better communicate with parents about district activities, newsletters, classroom activities all under one
Yes, ParentSquare is replacing the robo platform SchoolMessenger. We have found that there were multiple platforms being used across the district because they provided different functions. For example, Remind101. With this new platform, every method of communication will be in one place to make it easier on our teachers, students, and families.
Email and text invites will be sent to the email addresses and cell phone numbers of parents and guardians that we have on file in our student management system, Schooltool. If you did not receive a ParentSquare invite, then it is possible we have the wrong contact information on file. Please contact Karen in the Student Registration Office to verify or correct the contact information we have on file.

Those invitation links only last for 24 hours. You do not need to wait for a new invitation! You can proceed to the ParentSquare log on page and create your account with the same email address at which you would have received an invite.
It is recommended that each spouse have their own cell phone or email for emergency situations. However, if you and your spouse share an email address (or have provided the same email address for each of you in our parent contact records), only one spouse will be able to log in to ParentSquare using that email address. The other spouse should use their cell phone number to log on.

Yes, once the feature is enabled, and teachers start to use the platform, parents and guardians can contact their child's teacher privately by using the direct messaging tool. On the home page, click on "Messaging" in the left sidebar. From here, you can send a direct message to your child's teacher that only you and the teacher can see. You can also send messages to other staff members at the school, such as your child's coaches and club leaders.

ParentSquare will notify those contacts listed as a Primary Parent, Parent, Guardian, or a customized role called: PS Guardian approved contact within Schooltool. ParentSquare is an all-in-one platform that contains personally identifiable information for each student, therefore, we only engage with those designated contacts.

No. Each contact has the functionality of creating their own private account. They will, however, see everything related to the shared student. They will NOT see contact information on the other parent.
