Public Relations

Our Communications team is dedicated to keeping families, staff, and the community informed, engaged, and connected. We share important news, celebrate student and staff achievements, and ensure clear, timely communication across all district channels. From overseeing crisis communications; planning and creating strategic communication campaigns; managing the district website, social media, and branding; facilitating district and community events; capturing and sharing stories that showcase our amazing staff and students; and working with district departments, employees, families, students, community groups, and the media - our goal is to build trust and strengthen the partnerships among the ISD, our schools, our families, and our community.

Direct Communication

ParentSquare is the district's primary communication platform for families. It provides a secure and convenient way for parents/guardians to receive important updates, announcements, and reminders from the district, schools, and teachers.

Families are automatically signed up for ParentSquare using the contact information entered during student registration.

To update contact information contact your student's school(s).
