Remind Messaging System Baird ISD is phasing out our use of the Remind messaging system. We will exclusively use Parent Square for communications beginning in January. If you have not yet downloaded the app, it is the best way to use Parent Square. You can also set your communications preferences (type of message and frequency) in the app. Download the ParentSquare App The ParentSquare app is available in both iOS or Android stores. Downloading the mobile app is the easiest way to receive all Posts, Events, Sign Up Requests, Photos and Files. • iOS App - Apple Store • Android App - Google Play Store

Don't forget! A PTO meeting is today at 6:30 pm in the cafeteria. Anyone interested in wanting to make a difference and get involved with the school is welcomed to come and join.

We have created Community Groups in ParentSquare, so we can share announcements with extended family members and interested members of the Baird community. Groups have been created for the whole district, each campus, elementary classes, band, and athletics. More may be added in the future. Use the links below to find and subscribe to the groups of your choice. Secondary Groups: https://bit.ly/SecondaryGroups Elementary Groups: https://bit.ly/ElementaryGroups NOTE: Parents who are already receiving ParentSquare messages from your child's school, teacher or coach do not need to join the community groups unless there is one that is of interest to you.

Parents, We are migrating our communications platform to ParentSquare. The attached file has some information about the platform and how to set it up. If you did not get an invitation in your email, check your spam folder. If it is not there, double check to make sure your contact information in the parent portal is correct. The invitations are sent to the email addresses we have on file there. If you make changes to the Parent Portal on the Baird ISD website, it will take 24-48 hours to update in ParentSquare.
