Attendance improvement isn’t just about tracking absences. It’s about building stronger family partnerships.

That’s why we’re expanding Attendance Plus with new capabilities that help districts move from reactive processes to proactive, relationship-driven outreach:

✔ Automated workflows for attendance outreach and documentation
✔ Period attendance insights to help identify patterns earlier
✔ Proactive absence reporting that gives families an easy way to report absences directly in ParentSquare

A growing number of districts are already using Attendance Plus to strengthen family engagement and streamline attendance workflows.

“Since adopting ParentSquare Attendance Plus in August 2025, our attendance has gone from 92.7% to 94.9% districtwide, and every school has improved.” — Dr. Anny Iacono, Director of Special Education and Student Services, Nuview Union School District

“It gives them an extra layer of accountability because we can have transcriptions on those phone calls. We looked at lots of other options for ‘soft phone’ stuff over the years, but [Virtual Phone] gives our staff a one-stop shop for their communication needs.” — Rob Hayes, Director of Technology and Support, Bryan ISD

Bryan ISD recently approved an expanded telecommunications upgrade that includes ParentSquare Virtual Phone, giving staff a dedicated school phone number and bringing calls, texts, and communication records together in one platform.
