“As a Media Specialist, the centralized hub makes it incredibly convenient for sharing important updates and announcements across various channels—text messages, emails, and app notifications. The Smart Alerts and Virtual Phone features are life-savers for keeping everyone informed promptly. ParentSquare’s seamless integration of forms and appointments has been a huge time-saver for us. It's been instrumental in enhancing parent engagement and building a collaborative community.”

How it works for staff
- Select a ParentSquare user to call, or use the dialer to call a 10-digit US phone number.
- Staff members can add notes and log the reason for each call.
- Teachers and staff have oversight of their own conversations, and administrators can access call logs as needed.
How it works for families
- Incoming calls come from the staff member’s dedicated Virtual Phone number.
- Parents and guardians can save the number as a contact and call back as needed.
- If calls are returned outside of office hours, callers are sent directly to voicemail and can leave a message for the staff member.
