Who the signup serves

PCS says its subscriber system is available to people who are not already receiving closure, delay or announcement messages. Users create their own contact-preference profile and can review missed messages.

The division says activation links remain valid for 24 hours and subscribers are responsible for maintaining their own information.

Set it up safely

Begin from the official PCS page, choose only the notification groups you need and keep the email and phone entries current.

  • Do not create a duplicate profile if school records already deliver the same messages.
  • Complete activation within the stated 24-hour window.
  • Never send your subscriber password to school staff.
