ParentSquare Update: February Launch

Our target timeframe of launching ParentSquare at the end of January is needing to be moved back a bit due to delays related to publishing our custom branded app. Once the delays are resolved, I’ll provide an exact date for when you can expect to receive the ParentSquare invitation as well as steps to set up your account. We anticipate launching in February. To learn more about ParentSquare in UCSD, please review this summary of previously shared information.
