Everything you need to communicate, engage, and collaborate with families for student success.

Supporting Illinois school districts with family engagement

Illinois school districts are adopting the ParentSquare platform to streamline communications and empower administrators and teachers to engage every student’s family.

Engage every family in your district, not just most of them

If your platform isn’t built to let families communicate with you in the way that works for them, you’re not reaching all of your audiences.

  • Available via email, app, SMS, and voice
  • Two-way translation into 190+ languages
  • Contactability metrics and tools to help you reach every family

Integrated with your student information system for simple onboarding

ParentSquare partners directly with the major SISes used in Illinois for seamless set-up and syncing.

“ParentSquare allows us to not only communicate to our parents and staff in an effective and user-friendly way, but also in ways that best serve our community. Parents can choose the language in which they want to receive messaging, personalize the modes of communication (phone calls and push notifications, text, email) and frequency of messaging. As the largest elementary school district in Illinois, the data integration piece and contact verification feature strongly aids in our continuous effort to reach 100% for contactable student families.”
