Parent Square Send Invitation to Parents

After users are added to ParentSquare by the school or district, they will receive all messages from the school even if they have not registered their account. Users need to register their account to participate in two-way communication features. 

There are three ways a user can register their ParentSquare account:

• Click activation link in email or text (click here for notification examples.)
  • How to send invitations from District Admin
  • How to send invitations from School Admin
• Sign in to ParentSquare https://www.parentsquare.com/signin using the contact information (email or phone number) that matches the data in ParentSquare.
  • How a user can request activation email or text
• Click link in a post or message. Users who did not register previously in response to an invitation, will be asked to register the first time they click on a link to sign in or sign up. For example, if an unregistered parent receives a post with parent-teacher conference sign ups, clicking the link to sign up for the conference will first lead them through the process of registering their ParentSquare account.
