How to Sign Up Parents

Parent accounts are a great way to keep parents informed of classroom activities, assignments, grades and school events. In order to create a parent account, the parent’s child first needs to create a student account. Note: A parent only needs one account to view multiple children and their classes.
How to Sign Up Parents
Provide students’ parents with the 6-digit parent code (this is not the same as a group code). Each parent has one unique parent code, which is attached to the child. You can provide parents with the code in two ways:
From the Student’s account:
- Provide parents with 6-digit parent code found on the right side of a child’s Edmodo account. The code will be located on the right panel of the student’s account below the notifications section.
From your Teacher’s account:
- Select a group on the left side of your homepage.
- Select the “Members” tab option above the group communication stream.
- Select the printer icon at the top of the page.
- Select “Member List” or “Parent Codes” to download and print parent codes for that group.
The parent will then (this is only if the parent has never created an Edmodo parent account):
- Visit www.edmodo.com and select the “Parent Sign Up” button, just below the student and teacher sign up buttons.
- Fill out the registration form with the unique parent code, the relationship with the child and a valid email address.
- Select the “Sign Up” button to complete the signup process.
Note: Once the parent has created the parent account, the parent is automatically observing any group that the child is part of in his/her account. Any group the child adds in the future will be added to the parent account as well.
