District E-Newsletter
District E-Newsletter
The district’s award-winning e-newsletter, Parent News, is distributed via ParentSquare to the parents and guardians of all students enrolled in 4J schools every two weeks during the 2026-27 school year, typically on Thursdays.
Parents and guardians can change how they receive the e-newsletter and other news and announcements from the district and their child’s school by updating their notification settings (remember to sign in with ParentSquare with the email address you provided your child’s school). If you are not receiving emails and text messages from the district or your student’s school, contact your student’s school to verify your contact information and update, if needed.
The list of e-newsletters for the 2025-26 school year are for reference only. If you are interested in viewing an edition from that or previous years please email information@4j.lane.edu with your request. Please let us know using the same email address if you run into broken links or other issues with the e-newsletters.
