People bring ParentSquare in for a district running separate emergency notification, translation and classroom messaging contracts that wants one bill and one record, schools with a large share of families whose first language is not english and where reply rates in english are low, evidencing reach after an emergency closure, where the board asks how many families were actually contacted, moving teacher to parent conversation off personal mobile numbers for safeguarding reasons. If that is not the job you are buying for, the alternatives to ParentSquare are worth a look before you commit to a tier.

Before you pay for ParentSquare
Three things this page cannot tell you, and all three change the bill. The record carries a price and a billing period but not the unit - per-seat and flat-rate pricing are indistinguishable in this data, so a five-person team may be looking at five times the figure above. It carries no annual rate, so any discount for paying yearly is not something this page can quote. And it carries no trial length.
What it can tell you is the shape of the ladder: a single tier at On request. With no free tier on record, the cheapest way to answer the rest is to compare ParentSquare against the tools that do have one before committing.
ParentSquare runs on web, ios, android, and is published by ParentSquare (PowerSchool) of Santa Barbara, California, United States. The full record is on the ParentSquare review, and the rest of the category is under best education tools.
