Register using the ParentSquare App:

1. Open the ParentSquare App.
2. Click on Sign In with Google and enter your @ephrataschools.org email and Password.

In the app, use the bottom options to navigate through Posts, Messages, Alerts and Notices, and other content shared at your school.  

STEP 1: Verify Ephrata Schools has your current contact information:

1. Log into Skyward Family Access
2. Click on "My Account" in the top, right corner

3. Verify that the phone number listed in “Employee Access” is your current cell phone number. If you are also a parent in the district, make sure your number is correct in “Family Access” as well. If your contact information is incorrect, you will need to contact the district payroll department to update.

STEP 2: Check Notification Settings in ParentSquare:

1. Log into ParentSquare or use the ParentSquare App by entering your phone number and password. If you are unsure of your password, just hit the “forgot password” button and follow the steps to create a new login.
2. Follow these simple steps to check your notification settings.

*NOTE: If you are a teacher with synced classes and/or a parent with students in the District and you delete your primary phone number in ParentSquare, you may still receive ParentSquare messages. Our ParentSquare system links to Skyward and is refreshed each evening, which means your deleted phone number will be restored to ParentSquare. If you no longer want to receive notifications, please change your notification settings using the instructions in Step 1 above.

STEP 4: If All Else Fails, Check to Make Sure You Didn't Opt Out:

If, after verifying your contact information in Skyward and checking your notification settings in ParentSquare, you still are not receiving messages, try opting back in by replying "START" to any previous ParentSquare message or texting "START" to 66458:

ParentSquare classes will be automatically created using our Student Information from Skyward, so there’s no need for manual setup.

To help you start understanding some of the features in ParentSquare and how they are similar to Remind, the Remind and ParentSquare Terminology resource will provide an overview of how common features align between the two platforms.

You now have two separate accounts for your staff and parent roles. To see your children: 

1. You will have to be logged into both your staff and parent accounts.
2. Your parent role/account will need to be the active account.
