Starting Strength: Week 4?

Catching up on my posts, been c/w a simple linear strength cycle but bad about posting. Will retroactively update posts.

low-bar back squat (5x45, 5x95, 3x115, 1x135 then 3x5x155)
decline bench press (5x45, 5x65, 3x95 then 3x5x115)
deadlift (5x95, 5x135 then 1x5x185)

3x5 pullups

Squat is progressing slow and steady, a tad slow on the last few reps but it doesn't feel unsteady yet. DL felt good. M has been lifting with me and her form is improving nicely (though for some odd reason it's hard for her to get below parallel on the squat).

Do you find working bellow parallel is important? I recently have been stopping at parallel because I noticed that my back curves if I go further down.
