Update March 16, 2020:
You won’t be surprised to hear that all remaining Spring conferences were either cancelled or deferred. If we can be of any help, ParentSquare is here to support you and your schools, especially during times like these when reaching every single parent with school-to-home communication is vital.
We’ve set up daily sessions for anyone needing support or information right now:
ParentSquare 101:
March 17th-27th weekday sessions
Basic training for ParentSquare message senders.
ParentSquare Overview and Q&A
March 17th-27th weekday sessions
We’ll focus on how can you use it in day-to-day scenarios and during emergency situations, to reach every family equitably.
K12 Checklists and Emerging Best Practices
We’re also sharing what we’re seeing from the thousands of schools we work with on the community network (PSLN): how to communicate with parents and leverage communication tools in light of COVID-19.
We wish you and your communities good health, and as one school principal wrote recently to me and all our school parents: we’re all in this together. We’ll figure it out and make our communities and our country proud! #weareinthistogether.
Paula Cassin on behalf of the ParentSquare Team.
