ParentSquare is our district’s official communication platform that brings all school and district messages into one place.

With ParentSquare you can receive alerts, updates, and reminders by email, text, app notification — or however works best for you.

The app isn’t required; without downloading the app, you will still receive emails and texts and you can respond through a dashboard online, BUT the app is the easiest way to stay connected. With the app you can:

• Get instant alerts
• See calendar events
• Message teachers
• Customize your user preferences (language, notifications, and more) on-the-go

Good news — you don’t have to! ParentSquare automatically generates your account using the email and phone number you provided to your school. You may download the app (available in iOS or Android) or visit parentsquare.com/signin to get started and follow the prompts to sign up.

If you have more than one child, Parentsquare will automatically bring all your children into one account.

1. Go to www.parentsquare.com/signin
2. Type in the email address or phone number you use for Powerschool Parent Portal in the “Register” box, then click “Get Started”. Your email/phone number must match the contact details in the school database for this to work.
3. Check your email to click the confirmation link provided and activate your account OR enter the verification code sent through text message if you used a phone number.
4. Lastly, verify students listed in your account by clicking “Confirm”.

If you contact details aren’t recognized, contact your attendance@tcusd.org to get them added. After they update your information in their database, the new contact details will appear in ParentSquare after the next daily sync, and you will be able to create an account. 

Note: After you are added to ParentSquare by your school, you will receive school communication even if you have not registered your account. However, you will need to register your account to participate in two-way communications and to access any confidential student-specific documents or forms.

Just use the email or phone number you gave the school to sign in.

If you need help, please click “Forgot Password” on the sign-in screen, or log in to your (link to https://tcusd.powerschool.com/public/home.html) PowerSchool Student & Parent Portal to make sure we have the correct information on file.

Please allow 24 hours for all updates to go through our system.

1. Log in to your main ParentSquare account. 
2. If you have unverified contact information, you will see one or more contact cards under, “Action Required: Confirm Your Account Information.” NOTE: You can also click “Confirm Contact Info” on your Account page to start the process. 
3. Confirm Email and/or Phone. A verification code will be sent to the email or phone number. Enter this verification code in ParentSquare to confirm. 
4. Confirm Child(ren). 
5. Confirm your name and school affiliations by clicking “Yes, this is me”.

Is your phone number wrong? Do you want to change your primary email? Is your name misspelled? Do you see information for a student who’s not yours?

Contact details in ParentSquare are managed by your school and synchronized from PowerSchool records. Once the school updates their official records, changes will automatically be reflected on your account in ParentSquare within 24 hours. Email attendance@tcusd.org for questions and changes. Please note your child’s name, School, and grade level. Thank you.
