During THE Journal's ed tech chat with Dr. Chad Stevens, chief strategy officer at ParentSquare, at ISTELive 2022 this week, we learned that ParentSquare turns the old one-way road of hit-or-miss parent-teacher communications into a two-way superhighway that helps lighten educators' burdens and makes it easier to connect with and engage students' families — ultimately driving better learning outcomes.
