Parent communication from A to Z. Parro is the parent app from ParnasSys for communication, organization, and administration.
The robust integration between Parro and ParnasSys ensures that all administrative tasks are handled effortlessly. This includes managing absences and privacy preferences, while also keeping medical and contact information for students readily accessible.
Moreover, you maintain control over your own schedule, utilizing features such as silent mode. You can securely share photos, videos, and other information with parents, easily organize activities and parent meetings, swiftly send school-wide announcements or calander items, and allow parents to conveniently report absences and privacy preferences.

I’m sure it’s a handy system if you speak Dutch. If not it introduces a serious barrier to being involved in your child’s education in any way. When the content the schools send out is in Dutch and the app does have a translate function like email does. Putting the menus and app itself in English does not solve the real issue. It says a *lot* about the schools that adopt Parro. A core aspect of education instruction focuses on driving parental engagement in order to improve student outcomes, but the schools who implement Parro clearly don’t value that at all for their students with parents who don’t speak Dutch.

We are working on a translation feature and will be releasing that somewhere during this schoolyear. We don't have an exact date jet.

I’ve always had problems with Parro, especially when trying to copy text or make sense of calendar event time zone when outside of the Netherlands/Western Europe. Those problems remain, but now I can’t even open the app on my old iPhone because it forces iOS 15. Such a pain.
Mooi!

Mooie manier om met de school in contact te blijven.

Dag Hannah, bedankt voor je mooie review. Daar zijn wij heel blij mee. Het Parro team.
Digital lice have been eliminated from Parro’s feathers. We’ve meticulously examined the app and eradicated all minor bugs. Parro is now refreshingly vibrant!
