How to Add Events to your Class Calendar
ParentSquare offers a calendar for your classes. You can add events to your calendar using both the calendar tab, which will not send a notification, or through a post, which will send a notification. Both methods will be covered here.
From Calendar
From Home, click on the filter in the top right under your name. From the drop-down menu, click on your class.
In the left sidebar, click Calendar in the Explore section.
You will see a monthly calendar page for your class. To see upcoming months, click the > button above the calendar.
To add events to the calendar, click on a desired day or click and drag your cursor across multiple days. Then, in the pop-up window, enter a title in the Event Title field. In the field, Event For, enter the name of your class.
Click Submit, and the event will be created.
NOTE: This method will not notify parents of the event when it’s created.
From Posts
Unlike the above method, creating an event with posts WILL send out a notification. The event will also appear on the Posts page for your class.
From Home, click on the filter in the top right under your name. From the drop-down menu, click on your class.
In the left sidebar, click Calendar in the explore section. You will be taken to a monthly calendar page for your class.
Click New Event in the upper right.
A “New Post” page will open with the “To” field filled out for your class and “Calendar Entry” included.
Subject: Enter the name of your event.
Date: Select a start date for the event. If the event will take place over several days, click Add end time below the first date.
Click Post Now.
