Educators are always looking for new ways to improve school-to-home communication and student success. Skyward, a school administration software provider, and ParentSquare, a modern family and community engagement platform, have just announced a collaboration to offer educators an additional option for this purpose.
The combined power of the two platforms will enable educators to make the most of their communication and engagement capabilities. By integrating their services, Skyward and ParentSquare are hoping to create a smooth and efficient user experience for schools, students, and parents.
ParentSquare is well-equipped to help families work with their student’s school. The platform provides automatic two-way translation in 100+ languages, text, email, app, or voice messaging options, contact verification and correction tools, and more. Skyward is also providing comprehensive documentation and inclusion in SkyBuild, their tool used to share and export data, to serve as a guide for users on generating the necessary data files between platforms.
Ray Ackerlund, President of Skyward, said: “The more opportunities teachers and parents can communicate with one another, the better equipped both are to help students thrive. By combining the power of Skyward and ParentSquare, communication barriers will be removed, and families and schools can focus on what matters the most — the students.”
Anupama Vaid, the Founder & President of ParentSquare, also commented: “We are thrilled to announce our exciting partnership with Skyward. Combining the power of ParentSquare’s unified communication platform with Skyward’s comprehensive student information systems will empower schools with a high-quality experience that enhances collaboration, engagement, and student success.”
This collaboration will benefit Skyward customers using both SMS 2.0 and Qmlativ platforms. Skyward and ParentSquare will fully integrate, with an API coming this fall for Qmlativ customers.
The partnership between Skyward and ParentSquare is sure to help educators all over the globe spend less time on tasks and more time with students. With the help of this new collaboration, teachers can now be sure that their school-to-home communication and student success levels are optimized.
