ParentSquare Notification Settings
Notification Setting Options
In ParentSquare, parents/caregivers, staff, and students in grades 9-12 have three options for how often they receive notifications from the platform:
Instant: Receive all messages instantly
Digest: Receive all messages together in one daily communication around 6 PM.*
Off: No notifications are sent.*
*Please note: Regardless of your notification settings, you will continue to receive emergency notifications instantly. These notifications can be sent in the following ways: 1) A “Post” that is set to send immediately; 2) A Smart Alert or 3) An Urgent Alert. In addition, Direct Messages can still be received.
Changing Settings vs. Opting Out of Texts
Digest or Off: If you do not want to receive all messages instantly, we encourage you to select the “Digest” or “Off” notifications in the “Notifications Settings” feature. This allows you to customize how often you receive messages alerts via text or app.
Opting Out of Text Messages Via Text: You have the option to opt out of text messages altogether by replying “STOP” to a text message you receive. However, by doing this, you cannot begin receiving text messages again unless you text, “START” to 66458. Instead, we suggest you adjust your notification settings as described above.
We strongly encourage all parents and caregivers to download the ParentSquare app from the Apple Store or Google Play Store, and to register your accounts.
