Publishers and school/district admins can add teachers in the school/district. Teachers can perform various activities, like assign content to students, create groups, send notifications to students, etc. Refer to the role of teacher for more information.
- It is mandatory for the school/district to have a sufficient number of licenses to roster students and teachers.
- If you are an admin and you are also a teacher, you will need to roster yourself as a teacher, using a separate email address.
Follow the below steps to add a teacher:
1. Log in to the portal.
2. Click "Roster" on the left-hand side menu.
3. Click "Teacher" in the sub-menu.
4. (a) If you want to add one teacher at a time, click "Add Teacher".
(b) If you want to add teachers in bulk, click "Bulk Upload".
5. Click "Add Teacher".
You will see the below screen:
6. Fill in the following information (All the * marked fields are mandatory, other fields are optional and can be left blank if preferred.)
- Enter the first name and last name.

- Enter the password. You can either type in the password or select "Generate" to auto-generate a password. Select the box "Keep the same password for other teachers" if you wish to provide the same password to all the other teachers.
- Click inside the "Assign Classes" box and select the class you want to assign to the teacher. You can also select and assign multiple classes by holding the CTRL button and clicking on each class. These class names will already exist on the portal. If the class does not exist in the class list, you will need to add the class first, before adding the teacher.
