What is ParentSquare?

ParentSquare is the chosen communication platform in Northwest ISD to help families consolidate their communication from schools and to help teachers and campuses easily alert students and families.

NISD Families

All NISD Families  are sent registration emails at the start of the school year, but they can also register without this message. Families can visit parentsquare.com/signin to register with either the email or phone number they have on file with their child’s school. Contact information in ParentSquare is synced with the information in eSchool. If families wish to change any emails or phone numbers, they can do so at the campus level and the new information will sync with ParentSquare.

For families with Apple or Android smartphones, ParentSquare offers an app to view all communication from teachers, schools and the district. This app provides another avenue to review communication, though it is not required – families can still view communication by phone, email or on the ParentSquare website.

NISD Students

At the secondary level, teachers and schools can communicate directly with students in StudentSquare, which is the student-branded version of ParentSquare. This can be found in their NISD Portal and are available on both Apple and Android smartphones
