ParentSquare information for community members

ParentSquare is a way to receive email news from the district and its schools.

The district began utilizing ParentSquare in the 2023-24 school year for emergency notifications, such as school closings/delays and emergency situations in schools and has since expanded its use to include school and district-level messages.

To join the GCSD Public Community Group in ParentSquare, register here. For more information on how to set up your account, change preferences, and the answers to other frequently asked questions, go to the ParentSquare Information page.
