ParentSquare Communication Tool

ParentSquare: Our New District Communication Tool

St. Vrain Valley Schools will begin using ParentSquare, a new district communication tool that allows families to receive notifications based on their preferences. St. Vrain’s communications team will pilot ParentSquare for the remainder of the school year with the plan to expand access to schools at the start of the 2026-27 school year. We’re excited about the opportunities ParentSquare offers to streamline communication and will be working towards consolidating several of the tools families currently use into one convenient platform. 

Parents and guardians should have received an email invitation to activate their ParentSquare account. This will allow families to download the mobile app, set language preferences, and choose how and when they receive notifications.

Visit the district website to learn more about ParentSquare.

Families are first required to register their child through RevTrak, the online platform Community Schools uses, at ​​stvrain.revtrak.net. After completing the registration, families must log into the system to individually select their anticipated days of care using the calendar feature. Families are encouraged to register early and select their anticipated days of care immediately. Families can always deselect days at a later date.

  • Parents can click the school name above to go directly to its enrollment page.
  • or go to stvrain.revtrak.net and choose your child’s home school and then follow the prompts to the CS: Enrichment & Child Care Registration page.

  • Parent(s) Driver’s License
  • Child’s Emergency Contact Information (at least two individuals that are not parents/guardians)
  • Child’s Primary Doctor, Dentist, and Preferred Hospital Information (including phone numbers and addresses)
