Communication Guidelines for Parents
Have a Concern?
We understand that concerns and questions can arise during the school year. To ensure issues are resolved quickly and effectively, we encourage parents to follow the steps outlined in "I Have a Concern – A Parent's Guide to Being Heard at School." This guide explains how to address concerns at the appropriate levels, starting with those closest to the situation.

Final Forms: Student Information Portal

Sign-in to Final Forms

Final Forms is our online student information portal. Each Spring, the primary parent will receive an introductory email from Final Forms with instructions on how to complete the required forms. Please note that the system permits only one parent to enter student information. While the initial setup may take more time in the first year, Final Forms will save your information from year to year making the process quicker and more efficient in future years. Additionally, Final Forms pre-populates information wherever possible saving you time.  Click here for step-by-step instructions on how to register. 

All forms must be completed by July 1 each school year.  If you do not receive an email, please check your spam or junk folder, as it may be mistakenly filtered. If you do not receive the email at all, please reach out to our Technology Coordinator, Mr. Richardson, who can help assist you at:  [email protected].

****If your students' information changes throughout the school year, please sign-in to Final Forms and make the necessary changes.

ParentSquare: School Notifications

We are committed to enhancing school-community partnerships and communication through a district-wide communication platform called ParentSquare. This unified system allows parents and guardians to receive all announcements from the district, principals, teachers, and coaches in one convenient location, with customizable options for how and when they are notified. 

By unifying multiple tools into one communications app and service, ParentSquare provides a seamless experience for parents and staff.  Parents will receive school delay and closure information, keep track of news, activities, and events from their children’s schools, enjoy photos and announcements posted by teachers, sign up for parent-teacher conferences, see calendar items, and much more. School staff and parents can also engage in both one-to-one and group messaging with real-time language translation. 

ParentSquare is accessible on both computers and mobile devices. All district, school, athletic, and classroom communications will be sent directly to your email and/or phone via text. We encourage you to download the free ParentSquare app, available for both iOS and Android devices.

If you are new to ParentSquare, we highly recommend that parents watch the 14 minute training video that will help you to navigate through the ParentSquare application.
