Ensuring that your School Story remains a positive and informative space is easy with ClassDojo’s moderation tools! All school-approved School Leaders and teachers with admin permissions have the ability to moderate the School Story. This includes enabling and disabling comment settings, deleting posts, and removing individual comments from a post. These tools help maintain a respectful and engaging community for everyone.
A few notes:
- Though School Leaders can delete any post on the School Story, they only have access to edit posts that they created.
- School Leaders will also see all Class Story posts through the Unified Feed. However, Class Story posts can only be deleted by the post creator and the Class Owner.
- Deleting a post or comment removes it from view for all users. However, the content will remain on our servers to comply with federal privacy regulations such as FERPA and assist schools with Student Data requests. If you would like a School Story post deleted from our servers entirely, please contact us at privacy@classdojo.com for further assistance.
