ClassDojo Reminders

Class Stories should be used as a one-way communication tool; parent commenting should be turned off for Class Stories.
Classroom Dojo Points: Please note that the District does not endorse the use of ClassDojo as a classroom or behavior management system. Specifically, we do not support the public display of student points and negative points. We ask that this feature be turned off, as it potentially conflicts with the district’s philosophy on positive behavior supports.

Directions on how to turn off commenting and negative points
