Learn more about ParentSquare
VCS is using ParentSquare for all school and district communications.
Communications are primarily with email, text and app notifications. ParentSquare automatically syncs with our Student Information System (Focus) to generate an account for each parent, using their preferred email address and phone number. 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.
ParentSquare is a safe, secure, and modern approach to communication and collaboration between school and home.
What is ParentSquare?
