How do I add, edit, or deactivate a school administrator?

Only district level administrators can add, edit, or deactivate a school administrator. If your school is not a part of a district in Essential Education, the purchaser or a current school administrator can request via email for another person to be added or removed as a school administrator. Please send an email to support@essentialed.com for assistance.

To add an administrator to a school:

  1. From the Administration tab, select the School Information button, and locate the school to which you would like to add an administrator.

2. Click the Edit link next to the appropriate school name.

3. Click the Add button below the list of current administrators.

4. Enter the administrator's first and last name, email, and password.

a) Note: administrator accounts require a strong password. They need to be at least 10 characters long, with both lowercase and uppercase letters, as well as a number.

5. To continue quickly entering more administrators, click the Save & Add New button.

6. Click the Save & Close button when you are finished. 


 


To edit an administrator’s account or remove their access to the system:

  1. From the Administration tab, select the School Information button.

2. Click the Edit button next to the appropriate administrator’s name underneath the Administrators heading.

3. Make any appropriate changes, such as the school to which they belong (if applicable), or uncheck the Active box to remove access.

4. Similar to student and teacher accounts, you can send an email with login credentials to the administrator if needed.

5. Click the Save & Close button when you are finished.
