ClassDojo selected to support communication and family engagement in eight new U.S. school districts
School communication platform ClassDojo has been chosen by eight U.S. school districts to strengthen communication and family engagement across schools.
Districts in New York, South Carolina, Virginia, Texas, Colorado, Pennsylvania, Ohio, and Maryland have partnered with ClassDojo.
New districts using ClassDojo for Districts include:
Lynchburg (VA) City Schools
Manor ISD, Edgewood ISD, Laredo ISD, and Ysleta ISD (TX)
Pittsburgh (PA) Public Schools
Alamosa (CO) School District
Sylvania (OH) Schools
Charleston (SC) County Schools
Diocese of Rockville (MD) Schools
Linden (NY) Public Schools
ClassDojo offers communication across all schools and automatic translation in more than 130 languages. The tool can be used for districtwide messaging, announcements and updates and offers seamless integration with SIS, SSO and rosters.
"As we wrap up our first year as a ClassDojo for Districts partner, one of the biggest benefits has been the ability to create a more unified communication experience across our schools," explains Will Herring, Assistant Director of Technology at Moore County Schools in North Carolina.
"ClassDojo was already widely used and well regarded in our classrooms, so it made sense to build on that foundation at the district level. Just as important is the data – we're no longer sending messages into a void. Now we can see when families are engaging – and that insight is shaping everything from parent engagement strategies to our broader school improvement plans."
"Our goal is to make it easy for every family to stay informed, feel welcome, and be involved – without adding more work for educators," adds Dr. Chad A. Stevens, Head of K12 Engagement t ClassDojo. "We're proud to support districts that are building stronger communities around their students by helping district leaders improve communication, streamline tools, and better connect with every family."
Last year, Five Sigma, a dedicated EdTech growth fund, acquired a stake in ClassDojo. ClassDojo is heavily used in the UK, with more than 70 percent of schools having accessed and used ClassDojo. With an extensive user base of approximately 50 million, primarily under the age of 13, ClassDojo is utilised in around 90 percent of U.S. schools and across 180 countries worldwide.
