• About

    ParentSquare is EMUHSD's new school-to-home communications platform. ParentSquare is the premier K12 solution for unifying all communications modalities into one interface for education. The product engages every family with school communications and communications-based services—all the way from the district office to the classroom teacher, and all in one place website and/or mobile app.

    ParentSquare creates a message once and publishes it across all communication channels such as app alerts, phone calls, email, text, and social media. Staff members can customize messages, schedule urgent or routine announcements, and have an instant view of engagement statistics regarding how well the communications are being received. Teachers and staff are able to leverage this tool to assist in classroom attendance, homework, classroom, field-trip reminders, and even messages tailored to individual students, parents, staff, or community members. Perhaps the best feature of the ParentSquare platform is that all communications are translated into the student's or parent's preferred language automatically.
