Introducing ParentSquare: A new platform for unified school-home communication

Dear LKSD Parents and Students,

We’re excited to announce that LKSD is launching ParentSquare as our new district-wide communication platform. This move brings all school, district, and classroom communication into one place, making it easier for staff to connect with families and for families to stay informed and engaged.

Why we're making this change
With ParentSquare, we’re simplifying our systems, improving consistency, and creating more opportunities for meaningful engagement across every school and classroom. As part of the rollout process, we have added a ParentSquare Post section to your school’s website, where any posts your school shares to the website will appear. As we enter the second phase of this process, we will begin rolling out ParentSquare’s Smart Sites, which will replace the existing website.

What this means for families
Families will begin receiving school and district messages via email, app, voice, or text. Those who activate their accounts can also reply to messages, view photos, manage notification preferences, and more, all in one place.

ParentSquare also provides a student app, StudentSquare, that allows students to stay connected to school events and information.

What you can expect next
Soon, you will receive an invitation to the platform to set up your account access. You can access ParentSquare from your web browser at www.parentsquare.com, or install the ParentSquare app.
 
We’re looking forward to all the ways this platform will make communication simpler and more effective. Thank you for your partnership as we roll this out district-wide.
 
Sincerely,
 
Your ParentSquare Launch Team
