This morning we announced the launch of our Buyer’s Guide, titled “A Guide to Selecting a Comprehensive Platform to Unify School-to-Home Communications.” This 13-page guide focuses on both the communications challenges schools and districts face and the evaluation criteria that should be considered when a new platform is under review. The guide also includes experiences from districts that have moved to unify information channels into one comprehensive communications platform that keeps all parent contact information and preferences up to date.
Please review the press release or read on for more details.
Providing efficient, effective communication with students’ families is one of the overarching challenges that school districts face — particularly in times of national crisis like the COVID-19 pandemic. To help K-12 districts find the right tool to meet the needs of district leaders, principals, teachers, parents, and guardians, ParentSquare Inc., provider of the premier unified school-to-home engagement platform for K-12, has published a detailed new guide titled, “A Guide to Selecting a Comprehensive Platform to Unify School-to-Home Communications.”
The 13-page guide explores the many communications challenges districts and schools face, as well as the benefits of unifying disparate information channels into one comprehensive school-to-home communications platform. It includes a checklist with questions administrators can use to evaluate platforms to ensure they meet the needs of their stakeholders. In addition, the guide shares best practices from the Metropolitan School District of Wayne Township in Indianapolis, Ind., and Gilroy Unified School District in Gilroy, Calif.
