Looking back on a great week at the Central Access Users Conference! ⚾

Our Mississippi partners took the field to share how they keep families connected. That included a panel with Pascagoula-Gautier School District, Pearl River County School District, and Lamar County Schools, Pearl River County’s “Grand Slam of Communication” session, and North Panola School District look at their ParentSquare IT setup.

At our booth, we printed baseball cards for attendees, and they were a huge hit! Add in a great dinner with North Panola, and it was a season to remember. Thank you, Central Access Corporation!

Good conversations make great connections! 🤠 Here's a little look back at our day in Texas.

We had the opportunity to connect with K–12 leaders from across Texas for a day of collaboration, learning, and sharing ideas.

Together, we explored ways to strengthen family engagement, shared communication best practices, and heard firsthand how local districts are making a difference in their school communities.

Thank you to everyone who joined us and contributed to such a meaningful day!💚
