Fill up those committee positions fast or help members collaborate in existing committees. If you are looking for members to join your annual fundraiser efforts or planning your next year’s PTA positions, create a ParentSquare group and ask parents to join. Any ParentSquare member at school can now join ‘Public’ groups. Once you have filled all the positions, you can even lock the group by marking it ‘Private’ to keep all group communications within the group.
ParentSquare groups help members collaborate by keeping conversation threads and important dates organized plus you get a place to upload and store all your relevant documents. Only group members can post message and receive emails when others post.
