ParentSquare for School Communications
Webutuck Central School District has adopted ParentSquare for school-to-home communication through email, text, and mobile app notifications. This unified communications platform is designed to keep Webutuck families informed and encourage greater engagement and connection with our school district. It provides a safe way for district administrators, school principals, teachers, staff, parents, and guardians to:
Send and receive school and class information
Share pictures and files
See calendar items
Sign-up to volunteer
Schedule parent-teacher conferences
and much more...all in one centralized place!

How does ParentSquare work?
ParentSquare automatically generates an account for each parent/guardian, using their preferred email address and phone number as listed in SchoolTool, our Student Management System (SMS). We encourage parents to access their accounts so they can download the mobile app and update their preferences on when and how they are notified. You can use ParentSquare on any device.

Coming in Fall 2025: StudentSquare!
Teachers and families will begin using the ParentSquare communication tool in fall 2024. In addition to the tool for families, there's a tool for grades 7-12 students inside ParentSquare called StudentSquare. It’s for teachers and school staff (coaches) to communicate directly with students in grades 7-12, and for students to communicate directly with their teachers.
Each student automatically has an account in StudentSquare based on their school email address. Students receive messages via email, but there are other ways to get StudentSquare messages: students can add their cell number to receive text messages, or they can download the StudentSquare app (iOS and Android) and receive notifications.
Webutuck’s StudentSquare is a communication and organization tool designed to keep students informed and involved in their classes and extracurricular activities. It provides:
- All school, classroom and group communication in one place
- Notifications via app, text, and/or email
- The ability to send direct messages to teachers or coaches
