The Morristown Central School District is adopting a new communication tool for the 2024-25 school year. The district will replace Remind with ParentSquare as its primary mass notification system. From mass notifications to classroom-specific communication, ParentSquare allows parents/guardians to access the information they need when they have time to digest it.
Parents should have received an email from ParentSquare with instructions to activate their account. If you have not activated your account, you can sign up on parentsquare.com or via the ParentSquare app, which is a free download for iOS and Android users.
Parents who do not activate their account will still receive text, email and phone notifications.
Parents who do activate their account will be able to:
- Receive all district and school communication via email, text, phone and/or app notification
- Communicate in their preferred language
- Submit attendance notes
- Confirm contact information (changes must be submitted to your student's school building)
- Manage communication settings and notification preferences
One of the many benefits of creating a ParentSquare account is the ability to manage your notification settings. Users can set their preferences to either Instant or Digest for email, text messages and the app. Instant users will receive a notification the minute a message is posted. Digest users will receive one daily notification at 6 p.m. containing all messages posted that day.
