This session is designed for schools and districts making the transition from Remind to ParentSquare. Learn how to take advantage of ParentSquare’s tools to enhance communication and engagement beyond simple messaging.
We will cover how to send direct messages for two-way communication with parents, staff, and students in a secure, centralized platform. The session will also include how to use the virtual phone feature for voice calling, allowing users to make calls directly through ParentSquare while keeping personal numbers private.
Additionally, we will explore how to post school announcements and services, including sending permission slips, managing sign-ups for volunteers, and organizing parent-teacher conferences. Whether you are just getting started or looking to maximize ParentSquare’s capabilities, this session will provide the knowledge and skills needed for a smooth transition.

Growing up in a military family has brought so much excitement and adventure into my life! Thanks to my dad's service in the Navy, my sibling and I have had the opportunity to explore different places and make new friends along the way. The kids in my family, who are in high school now, have already lived in five different homes since kindergarten - talk about well-traveled little ones! Our community in Baldwin County is special because it's filled with families just like ours, who understand the challenges and joys of military life. We've even been honored with the Purple Star designation, which shows how much our county supports military families like ours. Interested in earning the prestigious Purple Star award for your school? Let's dive into how you can make that happen by getting some great advice from the Military Child Education Coalition and the Alabama State Department of Education. Together, we can create a school environment that's welcoming and supportive for military families, where every student feels understood and cared for. With some careful planning and teamwork, your school can become a Purple Star School too! By dedicating yourself to helping military children adjust to new schools and thrive academically and emotionally, you're making a real difference in their lives. Let's work together to make sure every military-connected student feels right at home in your school, no matter where life takes them. Alabama Purple Star Schools (click here)
