Why the change this year? This past year, Aeries Communication was purchased by Parent Square. 

ParentSquare provides a seamless experience for parents and staff. Parents will be able to keep track of news, activities, and events from all their children’s schools in one place. Through ParentSquare parents and guardians can now receive all announcements from the district, their student's school and their teachers in one place. There are built-in options for families to specify how and when they are notified. This system also provides one-to-one communication and group messaging with real-time language translation in over 100 languages.

We urge parents to access their accounts, download the Aeries or Parent Square mobile app and update their preferences on when and how they are notified.

In addition to routine information, the notification system will also be used to send urgent or emergency notifications that affect your student and may require your attention.  

If you are not receiving parent/student communications, please make sure your contact information in Aeries is up to date. Your students' school may assist with updating your information.
