Parent Access In Schoology

Parents can access student courses in Schoology. Parents need to get a code (Access Code) from the teacher and then create a separate parent account in Schoology. The two main parts of this process are outlined below, starting with the teacher’s steps, then what parents must do to access their children’s courses.


Part 1: Getting the Parent Access Code(s) as a Teacher

  1. Go into your course. Select Members on the left side of the screen.
  1. On the right-hand side, click the link to get Parent Access Codes. You will then be prompted to download a spreadsheet with all parent codes for your classes.
  1. Determine how you will get the parent code to the parents. There are two options:
  • Physically copy/paste or write down individual codes to give to parents in a note or email.
  • Complete a mail merge to automatically create a printout of the parent codes.
