For Remind teachers and administrators.

You can keep track of who's who on your People list by adding a private note for participants in your class. You can use a private note to display details such as family relationships, team names, roles, reminders, etc. If you share a class with another teacher or administrator, that co-owner cannot see your private notes. Only you can see the private note you add to a person's profile. 

While parents and students aged 13+ can be class owners, they cannot write private notes.
