Overview

Seesaw for Schools is used by K-5 teachers to share activities, manage student work, and share feedback with your students and families.

Caution

Although you may be tempted, NEVER, EVER change the Class Settings "student sign in mode." 

This setting MUST be left as "email/Google." 

You may read about class codes on the Seesaw website, but we do not use them here because Tech Services has automated the class, student account, and enrollment processes.

Getting Started Step-by-Step
