ClassDojo Admin permissions empower school-approved teachers with special access to manage their School’s Directory. These permissions are granted to ensure that only authorized individuals can oversee and maintain accurate records of students and staff. School Leaders, such as principals or administrators, are automatically granted Admin status, allowing them to perform crucial administrative tasks. This setup helps maintain a secure and organized environment for your school community. Follow these steps to learn more about ClassDojo Admin permissions and how they can help manage your School’s Directory effectively!
Admins are able to:
- Approve and decline teacher requests to join their School
- Manage their School Directory, including:
- Removing teachers that are no longer at the school, and transferring ownership of their active classes to another teacher
- Adding any school-approved teacher as a co-teacher to any class in School Directory
- Adding/Removing the Admin permissions to another school-approved teacher
- Removing students from the Directory
- Archiving classes, adding co-teachers to classes, and transferring ownership of a class from one teacher to another
- Manage the School Story by deleting School Story posts and enabling or disabling School Story commenting
- Send Schoolwide Announcements to all families and staff members connected to your school
- Enable or disable Class Chats and Family Chats for all classes in the Directory
- Manage Schoolwide Points by adding, editing, and deleting Schoolwide Skills
Changing schools
If you have Admin permissions and you change schools, you will lose your Admin permissions and will need to be granted access to your new school.
My school doesn’t have an Admin
We want to set schools up for success and are happy to help get Admin permissions added to a teacher's account to help set up their school! If your school does not have a School Leader or a teacher with Admin permissions, and you know that your Principal would like to designate you to have the admin permissions, please submit a request form here.
