Stay Connected with Parent Square!

We are excited to announce that our school district has adopted a new form of school-to-home communication called ParentSquare. This unified communications platform is designed to keep parents and guardians informed and encourage greater engagement and connection with your child’s school and Gwinnett County Public Schools.

ParentSquare provides a safe way for district administrators, school principals, teachers, staff, and parents to receive and send information, such as:

  • Weather-related closings & delays
  • School and class information
  • Share pictures and files
  • See calendar items
  • Upcoming class activities

District and school information will now be sent to your computer or phone via email and/or text via ParentSquare. For even more convenience, download the ParentSquare app (available for free for iOS and Android devices). Please note that some schools and teachers may still use other district-approved tools for the 2023-2024 school year to communicate with their families.

If you received our notification about ParentSquare and you have questions about confirming your account access, please send an email to PSQHelp@gcpsk12.org.

We are thrilled to announce that the Positive Coaching Alliance (PCA) is hosting a workshop designed specifically for parents like you who want to ensure that your children gain the highest possible value from their youth and high school sports experience, regardless of the scoreboard results.


Positive Coaching Alliance is renowned for combining the latest insights from sports, educational psychology, and organizational behavior to create a positive and empowering sports environment for young athletes. PCA's approach is backed by a National Advisory Board comprised of top professional and college athletes and coaches who utilize these principles at the highest levels of competition.


About the Workshop:


When: September 26, 2023

Time: 6:00PM

What to Expect:

Expert Guidance: Learn from leading experts in the field of youth and high school sports about how to support your child's development as an athlete and as a person.


Practical Advice: Gain actionable strategies and tips to help your child navigate the challenges of sports, build resilience, and develop life skills that extend beyond the playing field.


Community Building: Connect with other parents who share your commitment to fostering a positive sports experience for our young athletes.


By attending this workshop, you'll equip yourself with the tools and knowledge to ensure that your child's sports journey is filled with personal growth, character development, and lasting memories.

Medical Authorization

A parent or guardian must bring any / all medications to the school and fill out a medication administration form. Students are not allowed to carry any medications with them at school or on the bus. This includes any over the counter medication, for example; cough drops, Tylenol, etc. If you would like your child to have any OTC medication left in the clinic, you must bring to school with a completed medical authorization form.


To give us authorization to give your student their medication you will need to complete the Medication Authorization Form. You may print it, complete it, and bring it in or you can pick one up to complete in the clinic. A separate form is required for each individual medication.

If your student requires an inhaler and/or an Epi-pen you will need to complete the appropriate form.


For your student to be permitted to carry their inhaler and/or Epi-pen on their person, their physician will need to complete the section of our form advising us of their authorization. If the student will be carrying their inhaler and/or Epi-pen on their person, we ask that you also provide the clinic with a backup in case one is needed.
