Troubleshooting Tips
- You can only access class settings for a class linked to a school where you are a verified admin or the class owner.
- If a class code is already in use, you must create a different class code.
- If you don't see a list of potential class owners, there may be students under 13 in that class.
- Parents cannot be class owners for classes that contain students under 13.
- Class owners can’t see each other's participant chats, but they can send each other messages.
