The Problem: Dos Pueblos high school struggled to target messages to specific groups of parents like Spanish speaking parents, AVID, FRL, Engineering Academy etc. There was no easy way to update and manage email lists for parents in groups or to reach parents who did not have emails.
The Solution: In 5 months with ParentSquare, Dos Pueblos High increased their parent reach from 67% to 100%. They have been able to fix incorrect emails and send notifications via text to parents who do not use email, ensuring they reach their entire parent population. Administrators and teachers can also send targeted messages to specific groups of parents and keep them updated on classroom activities, keeping them in the loop.
