About ParentSquare

The platform provides email, text, and app notifications for messages, along with calendars, sign-ups, and other features. All messages are also available within ParentSquare, which can be accessed via an app or on a computer.

Once you have created an account, you can choose your notification preferences for general announcements & messages.

  • You can choose to receive district and school communication via Email, Text, and/or App Notification.

If you are both SG staff and a parent/guardian

You have the choice to have two separate accounts (one as a parent, and one as a staff member) or you can combine the two into one account. 

  • If you want to merge your two accounts: *make sure your parent email in your student’s PowerSchool record is your work email.*
  • If you would like them to become or stay separate: please contact your school.
  • Staff can and should use the “Sign in with Google” option (check corresponding photo) and it should let you in or prompt for your district Google credentials.

Community Group Messages

For community members without children in the district, you can sign up to receive districtwide announcements. This feature is made for alumni and other community members outside of the school district or individual schools who want to stay informed.
