ParentSquare
To view attendance notification responses, please read this Zendesk article. Attendance responses should be checked as you are not notified by email when they are sent.
We have received requests to extend ParentSquare notifications to additional contacts beyond Contact 1 and 2, such as blended households and grandparents. Technology has created a ParentSquare flag that can be enabled for any contacts who wish to receive notifications. To enable ParentSquare for a contact, follow these steps:
  • Select the student you wish to update and go to their Contacts screen.
  • Click the pencil icon under "Actions" for the contact you want to update.
  • Check the box labeled "ParentSquare?"
  • Click "Submit" to save the changes.
Here is the ZenDesk guide: Adding Additional Contacts to Parent Square.
