In this guide, you’ll learn how to share permissions with a co-teacher on InnerOrbit. This allows co-teachers to access your rosters, assignments, and/ or reports to better support your students.

⚠️ Important Note:
If your school or district syncs rosters with Clever or ClassLink, the best way to add a co-teacher is through the Clever/ClassLink sync.

  • Please reach out to your district tech contact to have your co-teacher added to the appropriate class sections.

  • Note: If you use the steps in this article, co-teacher permissions may be removed during the next nightly sync.
