Family Message
With the first day of school just a few weeks away(September 7 for 1st-12th grades and September 12 for kindergartners), we are excited to unveil our new Edmonds School District logo! The new logo and colors reflect the blue water, skies and trees we enjoy around the Pacific Northwest. With the new logo come new district and school websites, which go live on Monday, August 22. Until then, see the image below for a sneak peak.
Each parent/guardian should receive an email later today, Friday, Aug. 19, to activate a ParentSquare account. You can also visit parentsquare.com to sign in.
Here’s what you can do with ParentSquare:
Receive messages from the school via email, text or app notification.
We will also use ParentSquare to send email, text and voice messages during emergency situations.
Choose to receive information as it comes or all at once with a daily digest at 6 p.m.
Communicate in your preferred language.
How to activate your account
Please click the link to activate your account in the email invitation.
Each parent/guardian needs their own ParentSquare account with their unique email address and mobile number so they receive notifications.
You can use ParentSquare on any device. Download the free mobile app for iOS or Android or use the desktop version at www.parentsquare.com.
Once your account is set up, the Help & Support question mark in the top right corner can answer most of your questions and this getting started video will help you get familiar with the tool.
Our goal is for every family to join ParentSquare and engage with your school community!
If your student is eligible to ride the bus, you should receive an email with their routing information in the days leading up to the first day of school. You will not receive this information in the mail.
