Join Our Parent Community on Konstella.com

To communicate with each other and within classes, Glenview parents use Konstella, a free, secure, and private parent communications platform for schools, paid for by the PTA. This user-friendly system offers a website, iPhone, and Android apps and includes the following:

  • PTA and school-wide announcements
  • Classroom updates
  • Calendar of Glenview events
  • Event reminders (syncs to calendar)
  • Volunteer sign-up opportunities
  • Private messaging to each other
  • Searchable directory of entire school
  • Social groups and committees
  • File and photo sharing
  • Translated communication in multiple languages

If you have accepted your spot at Glenview but haven’t received an invitation to join Konstella, please email glenviewcommunications@gmail.com. Follow the registration link in that invitation and enter your information. You will be prompted to create a password as well as add your child. Be sure to add all your children at Glenview. In August you’ll have a chance to connect each child to the correct classrooms.

IMPORTANT: Once you’ve registered for Konstella, we recommend that you set up your notification preferences. This allows you to control how you receive Konstella communications and how often. You will also be able to set up your privacy preferences. You’ll find this under “Account Settings.”

Sync your calendar

The Konstella smartphone apps allows you to sync Glenview’s calendar with your Google, iPhone, or other online calendars. This way, you will not miss any school-wide or classroom events. Just follow these steps:

  1. Click on the Konstella logo, and then on Calendar in the top menu.

  2. On the right, click on the green link: “Sync to My Calendar.”

  3. This part is important: scroll past Participation Calendar to Events Calendar. Click on your calendar format.

  4. Confirm in the pop-up window.

  5. Give it a little time to sync. You should see school events on your calendar after a few minutes.

Konstella Code of Conduct

Konstella is a tool funded by the PTA to enable parents and caregivers to communicate about our school and our kids. We strive for a self-moderated environment, where we put our kids first and role model behaviors we expect of them. All adults on Konstella are asked to follow the 4 Be’s our children use at school: 

  • Be Safe
  • Be Responsible
  • Be Respectful
  • Be Kind

Rules

To ensure a welcoming environment for all, the following are not allowed on Konstella, and may lead to a post being removed:

  • Slurs / name calling
  • Threats
  • Attempts to embarrass or humiliate others
  • Revealing personal information about others
  • Explicit material or language
  • Using the platform for spam marketing
  • Using the platform to campaign for political candidates or ideologies

If you see a post that violates these rules, please notify the Glenview Help account on Konstella or email glenviewhelp@gmail.com.
