Dear Parents and Guardians: On Friday, February 16, 2024, your child brought home an introductory letter to our new communication platform, ParentSquare. Lowville Academy is migrating to this new platform over the coming weeks for all district communication. We have added parents to this platform from the information we have in SchoolTool. You can expect to receive an email today, Monday, February 26, 2024, inviting you to register your account. You will receive all messages from the school even if you have not registered your account. You do, however, need to register your account to participate in two-way communication features. Our goal is to have all parents actively on ParentSquare by March 8, 2024. If you have any difficulty registering your account, please contact our Director of Technology, Mr. Jim LaVere at jlavere@lowvilleacademy.org. You can download the ParentSquare app for iOS or Android. We look forward to migrating to this new parent communication platform and to being able to share more information with you in a more consistent and user-friendly way. Sincerely, Rebecca Dunckel-King
