How to claim your school’s profile in minutes

1
Create an account

Teachers, principals, verified PTA/PTO leaders, administrators, and communications staff can all claim school profiles. After signing up for your account, you’ll get an email asking you to verify your email with one click. This quick but important step must happen to create your school account.

If you’re claiming more than one school (e.g. district communications personnel) and you have access to a generic, school- or district-based email (such as info@yourschool.org), we recommend using that address to create your account.

2
Customize your profile

Answer simple questions about your school’s classes, learning environment, extracurriculars, college and career offerings, hours, and more. You can also respond to community reviews directly on your profile.

3
We’ll do the rest

We take data security seriously, so we’ll verify your account before publishing changes. We’ll email you once your account has been approved by our team.
