Plain Local Schools will transition to ParentSquare as our exclusive communication platform starting with the 2025–2026 school year.
ParentSquare is designed to make it easier for families to stay connected with their child’s school. It will bring all school communication, emails, text messages, app notifications, forms, and announcements into one easy-to-use platform. This change will replace systems like Remind, different email newsletters, and other tools we’ve used in the past, giving you one place to receive information from teachers, principals, and the district.
