Adding Sub-Administrators

This article is for super-administrators who want to manually add a sub-administrator to the account. Sub-administrators and teachers cannot add other sub-administrators. Only super-admins can.

This option is also available for Clever and ClassLink accounts, which can be helpful if you want to add sub-admins outside of those integrations.

You can create as many or as few sub-admin accounts as you need.



If you have a manually rostered school or district account and wish to make a teacher a sub-admin, you must first delete their teacher account.

Sub-Administrator Permissions

  • Sub-admin access is limited to the specific school(s) assigned to them.
  • Within their assigned schools, sub-admins have the same permissions as super-admins.
  • Sub-admins cannot add schools or other sub-admins.
  • Teachers promoted to sub-admin status can still access their classes from the Classes dropdown at the top of the Students tab.
