ParentSquare is the primary communication tool to share important, urgent, and vital information with our parents, teachers, students, and staff. It offers a multitude of tools that allow our district, school administrators, and teachers to more effectively communicate with families and students. Some of the features include:
- Mass notifications and urgent alerts with two-way communication
- Mobile apps for administrators and parents
- Attendance notifications
- Teacher and classroom notification
- Direct messaging and chat with two-way translation
- Forms and permission slips
- Calendar and RSVP
- And a whole lot more!
When parents download the app or go to www.parentsquare.com to create an account, they can become more actively involved in communication by appreciating posts, viewing photos, leaving comments and managing their communication preferences. Parents will also be able to view posts that are addressed to the school and any groups or classes that they or their child belongs to. Parents do not see posts for classes or groups that they don’t belong to. Those who decide not to sign up will still receive crucial texts, emails, and phone notifications.

ParentSquare Troubleshooting
I tried to log into ParentSquare using my email or cell phone on file with the school, but it won't allow me to. What do I need to do??
Log into Parent Portal in Aeries.
Follow the steps below to get to the CONTACTS page to update your cell phone, email, and notification preferences to General & Emergency Announcements. Make sure you have the SAME CONTACT INFORMATION on ALL CONTACTS PAGES for ALL OF YOUR STUDENTS.
NOTE: If parents haven't yet completed data confirmation, you will NOT be able to navigate to the contacts screen directly until AFTER data confirmation has been completed!
After you correct the CONTACTS page in the Parent Portal, it will take 24 hours for the information to sync with ParentSquare.
If you don't know your student's ID#, please call the Student Information System Office at 559-274-4700 x10711. They will have to ask you specific questions before they can mail you the student ID number, which is private information.

Media Inquiries
- If the media wish to attend a school event or function, they are asked to make arrangements in advance with the Communications and PR Officer who will coordinate the arrangements with the school site.
- If a member of the media arrives at a school site unannounced, the school will contact the Communications and PR Officer immediately and a determination will be made as to whether it is advisable to allow media access to the site at that time.
- Although Central Unified encourages site administrators to make every effort to accommodate the reasonable requests of legitimate news media for access to schools, school officials do have the authority to deny access when they believe the media's presence may disrupt or interfere with classes or other school activities.
