Our district’s goal is to inform parents and guardians of safety alerts, school events, and general school information in a consistent and timely way. Starting this summer, all schools in the Fern Ridge School District will use a new parent/guardian engagement tool to connect with families.

Why ParentSquare?
Minimize message overload!
ParentSquare is a single platform that delivers school communications all in one place — from the District office to the classroom teacher. Parent and guardians will no longer need to search various platforms for information.
