How Do I Edit a School Directory?

Editing your School Directory on ClassDojo is simple and helps keep your school community up-to-date and connected! School Leaders and teachers with admin permissions can add students to the School Directory, make necessary edits, and approve new teachers and school staff. Whether you’re using the web, iOS, or Android device, managing your School Directory is a breeze. Follow the steps below to learn how to edit the School Directory and keep your school organized and engaged!

Please note:

• Students added directly to the Directory will be under the "No Classes" section; once students are imported into a class, they will move to the respective grade level heading in the Directory.
  
• Students will automatically be added to the School Directory as long as the teacher is school-approved when adding them to their class. If you have a class where students weren't added to the School Directory, please submit a support request here.
