About ParentSquare
Greater Albany Public Schools uses ParentSquare to share important information and stay connected with families and our school communities. ParentSquare brings district and school communications together in one place, including announcements, news, events, reminders, and alerts.
ParentSquare is available as both a website and a mobile app for Android and iOS. Families can receive messages in the way that works best for them, including email, text message, phone call, or app notification. Once an account is activated, users can choose their preferred delivery method and notification settings.
Teachers, school staff, administrators, and district teams use ParentSquare to communicate with families, share classroom updates, and send timely school and district information.

Emergency notifications will always be sent by text message or phone call.
Community flyers and approved partner information are shared through ParentSquare.
