ParentSquare
Widefield School District 3 will be using only ParentSquare (PS) as our mass notification and school communication system beginning January 2026.
PS automatically generates an account for each parent, using their preferred email address and phone number listed in Infinite Campus. Parents will receive an invite (please check spam folder) from the school or District. Use this invite to access and update your account. We encourage parents to also download the PS app.
PS will also generate an account for each junior high and high school student. Students can download the Student Square app which allows them to communicate with school staff and coaches.
Here’s what you can do with ParentSquare
- Receive messages from the school via email, text or app notification
- Choose to receive information as it comes or all at once or via a summary email in the evening
- Communicate in your preferred language
- Direct message teachers, staff and other parents
- Participate in group messages
- Sign up for parent-teacher conferences
- Sign forms & permission slips, sign up to volunteer, and more all from your desktop or mobile device
