Parent Square:

Activate an account in order to communicate back to the school.

McKay will be using ParentSquare as the primary communication tool with families moving forward.

ParentVUE:

Every parent should have an active ParentVUE account. If you do not, please check with the main office at 503-399-3080 to get your activation key. ParentVUE is where you will register your student every school year and keep all of your contact information up to date. You can also check your student's grades and progress reports there.

Please note: It is not a communication platform (not to be confused with ParentSquare). It is our student database.

It is very important that parents keep their contact information current. Be sure to let the school office know if you have a new address, email, or phone number. You can also make the changes directly in ParentVUE.
