ClassDojo

ClassDojo is a communication and community platform for pre-K through 8 classrooms, and increasingly for whole schools and districts. Teachers use it to message families (with automatic translation into 190+ languages), post photos, videos and updates to a private Class Story feed, add calendar events with automatic reminders, award Points tied to behaviors and skills, and give students their own Portfolios; a Teacher Toolkit adds classroom utilities such as attendance sheets and timers [0][1][2]. The company describes itself as a global community of more than 50 million teachers and families sharing children's learning moments in school and at home [3]. Public marketing states the product is loved by more than 45 million students and parents and is free for teachers forever [0][1].

The product has expanded from a single-classroom app to schoolwide and district functionality. Schoolwide features include PBIS-aligned Schoolwide Points, Signups for conferences, parties and field trips, one-way school announcements with translation and read receipts, a unified inbox across classes, combined school and class feeds, and switching between multiple schools from one account [4]. For 2026, ClassDojo added Canva-based newsletter creation inside the post composer, multi-class Story posting, a cleaner interface for older students, and teacher-to-student messaging for ages 13+ limited to eligible rostered schools in select pilot districts, where the school leader must enable it in settings [2]. Rostering connects a school's Student Information System to ClassDojo to sync students, classes, staff and families, and is offered through ClassDojo for Districts [2].

Historically the product combined classroom-to-home sharing (portfolios, photos, videos, messages) with social-emotional skill building via in-classroom feedback and activities on topics such as growth mindset, empathy and mindfulness [5]. In late 2018 the company added Beyond School, an optional family subscription for at-home learning experiences [5]. Forbes reported in 2022 that the company was building a virtual space for children [7].
