Case Study: Pearl River County School District streamlines school-home communications with ParentSquare

District Moves from Manual to Automated District Communications with ParentSquare

Pearl River County School District, a rural district in Mississippi, sought to replace its inefficient manual communications system, which relied on disparate email groups and paper notices. Their goal was to adopt a single, streamlined platform to save time, increase contactability, and improve engagement with families. They partnered with the vendor ParentSquare to implement its secure communications platform for the entire district.

By adopting ParentSquare, the district automated its messaging and consolidated all school-home communications onto one platform. This solution from ParentSquare resulted in a contactability rate of 100%, significant time and cost savings, and improved emergency communication. The platform is now used district-wide for everything from attendance notices to permission slips, ensuring everyone is reached effectively.
