“We send out report cards, attendance letters, and more with Secure Documents, saving our district around $30,000 each year. ParentSquare has helped increase communication with families, especially with families that require translation. ParentSquare also has one of the best, if not THE best, customer service!”

“The support and onboarding process for ParentSquare has been phenomenal. Our teachers, staff, and parents have taken to the product very quickly, and we’ve been able to integrate classroom and district communications, secure document delivery, attendance, auto notices, and appointment sign ups, all within the first marking period of our initial year.”

“We’ve replaced paper report cards with ParentSquare’s simple tool to send secure documents directly to families, and saved money in printing and postage. This is one of those tools that comes along and makes a serious impact in a short period of time, and has been central to strengthening the bond between our schools and families.”

Frequently Asked Questions
ParentSquare Secure Document Delivery makes it easy for K-12 districts to send home electronic documents—like report cards, test results, IEPs, and more—right through the same platform families already use for school communication. Instead of printing and mailing, districts can distribute documents instantly through families’ preferred channels, helping them stay informed while reducing time and costs.
K-12 districts use ParentSquare Secure Document Delivery to deliver a wide range of school documents, including:
- Report cards and progress reports
- Attendance notices
- IEP and 504 documents
- Transcripts and academic records
- Registration and enrollment forms
- Health and immunization forms
- Parent notifications and required communications
Secure Document Delivery supports documents for virtually any student-specific communication that would traditionally be mailed home.
Secure Document Delivery provides individual links to each student’s document, helping districts send information that includes confidential or sensitive details in a way that supports privacy requirements. Deliveries occur through families’ preferred communication channels, and districts can track delivery stats the same way they do for other ParentSquare messages. This allows teams to identify who received a document digitally and follow up only with those who need a printed copy.
Families receive a message through the channels they already use—text, email, app, or web—with an individual link to their student’s document. There’s no login required to open the file, making it simple for parents and guardians to view important information right away. Documents are accessible in their preferred language and from any device.
Yes. Secure Document Delivery provides the same delivery and engagement statistics available for other ParentSquare communications. Districts can see which contacts received the message digitally and follow up as needed by printing and mailing physical copies only to those who did not. This helps reduce workload and increases confidence that families actually received key documents.
While Secure Document Delivery focuses on distributing electronic documents, ParentSquare also includes paperless workflows for online forms, surveys, and digital permission slips, allowing families to submit signatures or required information directly from their phones. Districts can combine digital forms and document delivery for an efficient, fully online experience.
Email and generic file-sharing tools aren’t built for sending student-specific documents and don’t give districts any visibility into whether families actually received them. ParentSquare Secure Document Delivery sends each file as an individual link through families’ preferred channels—text, email, app, or web—and provides delivery stats for quick follow-up. Because it’s part of ParentSquare, families don’t need new accounts or passwords, and districts can use the same translated, K-12 communication tools they rely on every day.
