You can combine your multiple accounts in ParentSquare. Cases where combining accounts makes sense include:
- User is a staff member and parent: combine staff account with personal parent account to access both with one login. All emails and phone numbers remain associated. Note: Staff must sign in with the email or phone number associated with their staff account.
- Parents share an email or home phone: their accounts will automatically link if they are listed with shared contact information.
- User is missing a student or school from their main account: they have a second account for student or school that can be merged.
There are 4 ways to combine accounts:
- From an invitation email
- When verifying contacts
- By using My Accounts
- By requesting your password to be reset
