How to set up an appointment or conference for only part of my class in ParentSquare 

There are two ways to achieve this. Option 1 is to make a small group first and then setup your conference signups and send it to that group only. Here’s a video illustrating this option: https://youtu.be/DfwUdPG9CbU.

Option 2:  schedule a conference in advance and send the link using Direct Message. Video Illustrating steps: https://youtu.be/CsPoWIezkKw. If you use this option, you can add office staff on as Admin so they can help make changes if needed. You can add an admin (like office manager) near the end, after you’ve set up the appointments. 

*Note: adding an Admin to the signup/appointment slots must be done BEFORE you finish setting up and close (click on the X in the upper right corner) the signup/appointments. Once the signup has been created, you cannot add an admin. 

You can close the appointment/conference signups so parents can no longer sign up:  

1.    To close the sign-up, click on the post and look for Appointment Sign Ups.

2.    Click Disable to the right of the date. 

3.    Choose Disable All Sign Ups or Disable Sign Ups For This Date Only. 

Parents can still delete their sign up (and an email will be sent to teacher) but parents cannot change their time slot or sign up for a new slot after it has been disabled.

4.    Follow the same steps to Enable sign ups again.
