Dear Parents/Guardians, We wanted to inform you that we received an email from ParentSquare last night regarding an 𝗶𝘀𝘀𝘂𝗲 𝗮𝗳𝗳𝗲𝗰𝘁𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗽𝗮𝗿𝗲𝗻𝘁𝘀 𝘄𝗵𝗼 𝘂𝘀𝗲 𝗬𝗮𝗵𝗼𝗼, 𝗔𝗢𝗟, 𝗼𝗿 𝗩𝗲𝗿𝗶𝘇𝗼𝗻 𝗲𝗺𝗮𝗶𝗹 𝗮𝗰𝗰𝗼𝘂𝗻𝘁𝘀. Apparently, parents with those email accounts have not been receiving ParentSquare notifications via email this week. However, they are still receiving messages through the ParentSquare app (if they are using the app). The email below, from ParentSquare to WBSD7, indicates why the issue is happening and notes that they planned to defer pending emails, so that parents don’t receive old emails at random times. Apparently, that did not work! This morning, some parents reported receiving notifications from Wednesday (3/27), timestamped for this morning. We apologize for any inconvenience and confusion this may have caused. 𝗣𝗮𝗿𝗲𝗻𝘁𝗦𝗾𝘂𝗮𝗿𝗲 𝘀𝘂𝗴𝗴𝗲𝘀𝘁𝘀 𝗱𝗼𝘄𝗻𝗹𝗼𝗮𝗱𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝗮𝗽𝗽 to avoid this email delivery issue until the matter is fully resolved. We are actively employing several communication strategies to ensure parents are informed about this information. Thank you for your understanding and cooperation. If you have questions, please email communications@willistonschools.org Best regards, WBSD7 Administration 🔶🔶🔶🔶🔶🔶🔶🔶🔶 This email message was sent to ParentSquare District Admin users at 6:20 PM on 3/28/24: We wanted to provide an update on the email delivery issues you may be experiencing with email accounts managed by Yahoo. What happened? Earlier this week, users with email accounts managed by Yahoo, including yahoo.com, aol.com, and verizon.com, began experiencing issues receiving emails sent from ParentSquare. Why did it happen? Yahoo began “deferring” emails sent from ParentSquare, meaning that Yahoo blocked those emails from being delivered. Other email providers, such as Google and Microsoft, have continued delivering ParentSquare emails normally. What are we doing to resolve the issue? We have been working with Yahoo and our email delivery providers to identify the root cause of the issue. Unfortunately, our providers have not been able to give us much information on the root cause or on how we can work around the issue. We are continuing to escalate the issue to try and get to a resolution as quickly as possible. We have also canceled all of those “deferred” emails that are pending for Yahoo. This means that they will not send unexpectedly at a later date when the issue is resolved. What can you do in the meantime? Please encourage your families and staff to install the ParentSquare app on their mobile devices. Users who enable notifications in the ParentSquare app will be able to receive the same messages that would otherwise be sent via email. We understand the importance of being able to reach all email users in your communities, and are committed to working through this issue to get to a resolution. We will provide an update when we know more about the root cause or how we can work around the issue. ParentSquare Team
