Communication
How to Receive Important Communications from LW
Accessing/Receiving Information from the Laurelwood School & SCUSD
Santa Clara Unified School District adopted a new form of school-to-home communication in 2022 called ParentSquare. ParentSquare a.k.a. Aeries Communication: SCUSD has decided to use the name ParentSquare - it's the name of the app and their brand, but email correspondence will come from "Aeries Communication"
Download the ParentSquare app today to stay connected to your child's school and the district- from anywhere!
The ParentSquare communications tool replaced all previously used school communication tools (i.e. Remind texts and Schoolloop News). School and district communications are communicated through ParentSquare, which is a part of Aeries, so it is very important that your Aeries Parent Portal contact information (i.e. email addresses, cell phone numbers, etc.) is current.
Accessing/Receiving Information from the Laurelwood PTA
In an effort to save valuable resources, including money and the number of flyers that go home in Thursday Envelopes, the Laurelwood PTA will be relying on email communication with the school community.
To register for Laurelwood's PTA emails, Go to Laurelwood's PTA Website and then sign-up to be on the PTA email communication list in order to receive important school updates from Laurelwood's PTA.
Be sure to check the website often for up-to-date information about events, as well as how-to get involved.
School Flyers
SCUSD uses an electronic flyer posting and distribution system called Peachjar. Peachjar replaces paper flyers. As part of our efforts to be more environmentally friendly, and to embrace innovative technology, we provide electronic flyer delivery and access.
Through Peachjar, each school can send flyers to its families, and outside nonprofit organizations can send district-approved flyers to all SCUSD families who are subscribed to receive emails. These flyers are also posted on each school’s website for the duration that the organization signs up for. Look for the Peachjar launch button on website's homepage.
