Hello Families,

We’ve had several families ask how they can reduce non-emergency messages during the school day when they’re at work or busy, and we completely understand! We want you to stay informed about important updates, school events, and district highlights without feeling overwhelmed.

The good news is that ParentSquare allows parents, students, and staff to customize notification settings. You can choose to receive non-urgent posts in a single nightly digest, grouping messages together for easy viewing, rather than receiving them throughout the day. Emergency and time-sensitive alerts will still come through immediately.

🎥 Watch this quick 2-minute ParentSquare video to see how to adjust your settings or follow the steps outlined below:
