Mission Give schools the power to incredibly enhance family engagement for every student
Description The idea for ParentSquare was born in 2010 when Anu, a computer engineer, who had recently taken a sabbatical from work to be with her young school-age kids, experienced the difference in how connected she was with her kids’ life at school being a stay-at-home mom. ParentSquare was started to bring the same connectedness to every family at the school. The software took shape with the help of other founders at 4 different local schools, and over a span of 2 years was picked up through word-of mouth by 20 other local public, charter, private, cooperative, jewish preK-12 schools. Today, ParentSquare and RemindHub, our flagship products, serve over 20 million students and drive our mission by providing unified communications tools -forms, sign ups, payments, RSVPs, direct messaging, language translations, chat and more. Remind Chat, our free product, reaches over 80% of K-12 students, providing a safe and easy-to-use platform for direct communication between teachers and families. And our latest innovation, SmartSites, offers state-of-the-art websites for school districts, enhancing their online presence and accessibility.
