Canva Education and ParentSquare Collaborate to Enhance School-to-Home Communication

Family involvement is one of the strongest predictors of children’s success in school, according to researchers from the Center for Educational Equity. When families and schools work together, students perform better academically, have higher attendance rates, and show more positive behavior. That’s why we’re excited to announce our collaboration with ParentSquare⁠(opens in a new tab or window), a unified school communications platform that engages families all the way from the district office to the classroom teacher. ParentSquare makes it easy to streamline mass notifications, classroom posts, one-to-one messages, forms, and sign-ups.
