For the 2026 – 2027 School Year, MSBSD has simplified the process for sending out student permission slips. Schools and staff should use the following process whenever a permission slip is required for an activity, field trip, or other student event.
Sending a Permission Slip
- Log in to ParentSquare and select "New Post":

- Complete the post details, including recipients, send date/time, subject, and post description.
- On the left side of the post select "Forms/Permissions".

- Enter the permission slip deadline under "When do you need completed form by?"
- Under "Select an Existing Form", open the dropdown menu and select "MSBSD Student Permission Slip to Participate".

Viewing Permission Slip Responses
- From the ParentSquare main feed, open the post that included the permission slip.
- On the right side of the post, scroll down and select "Forms Report".
- Select "Export CSV" to download the list of responses.
Important Information
The "Description" field of the ParentSquare post MUST include:
- A description of the activity or trip.
- The location and time of the activity.
- A reminder that the permission slip is attached to the post.
- The date by which the permission slip must be completed.
Parents/guardians will complete and submit the permission slip directly through ParentSquare.
