BCSC Transitions to ParentSquare for Communications this Summer
Brownsburg Schools will be adopting a new form of school-to-home communication for the 23-24 school year called ParentSquare. This unified communications platform is designed to keep parents and guardians informed and encourage greater engagement and connection. It provides a safe way for the district, school principals, teachers, staff, and parents to:
- Send and receive school and class information
- Share pictures and files
- Sign up to volunteer
- and much more . . . all in one centralized place!
An email with the invitation to sign up will be delivered to families on July 17. CLICK HERE to read more about ParentSquare!
Potential Changes in 2023-2024 Bus Routes
As BCSC prepares to open Crossroads Elementary for the 2023-2024 school year, the Transportation Department has examined every PK-12 bus route for safety and efficiency. For next school year, some existing bus stops will be eliminated, moved, or combined. As has been our practice for Back to School, if you requested bus transportation during registration for your student(s) for next year, you will be receiving a phone call from your student’s bus driver and an email from the Transportation department in late July with the detailed information. Please know, all bus stops meet or exceed the criteria BCSC sets for student safety.
