Important Info for Families:
PVUSD uses ParentSquare for school communication, primarily with email, text and app notifications. For best communication results, we recommend that you download the ParentSquare app to your mobile device! ParentSquare automatically generates an account for each parent, using their preferred email address and phone number. We encourage parents to access their accounts so they can download the mobile app and update their preferences on when and how they are notified. Families should make sure their most recent email address and cell phone number are provided to their child's school site.
