Step by Step School Setup
Outstanda for Schools sets up in a few steps. To keep costs low, setup is self-serve; we’re always available by email if you need help.
Step 1: Create Administrator Account
To set up a school you must first set up an Outstanda account. Use your real information. You must be 18 or older to administer a school. Admin Doc
Tip: If you already have an Outstanda account, you can use it—no second account needed.
Step 2: Verify Email (Magic Link)
Click the magic link we email you to log in.
Tip: Add outstanda.org to your email allowlist—some school filters are strict.
Step 3: Request School Access & Choose Licenses
Decide how many licenses you need. Licenses are reusable if students leave or finish.
Pricing: Depends on size and features
No roster upload. Students join independently using class codes and grant the school access.
Step 4: Generate And Pay Invoice
Your request creates an invoice you can download/print for PO or check, or pay by credit card for faster activation.
Tip: If mailing payment, allow time for delivery and processing.
Step 5: Add Teachers and Report Viewers
Approve teachers and anyone who needs reporting access (they’ll create their own free Outstanda accounts). Teacher Doc | Reporting Doc
Tip: Teachers create class codes; students enter the code to share reports and progress.
Step 6: Share the Parent Handout
Parents and students own the account and data. Your school gains reporting access when families use your class code. Parent Doc | Student Doc
Tip: The handout in your dashboard explains setup and keeps access portable if students change schools.
Step 7: Monitor Reports Weekly
Use the school dashboard to track students and classrooms across literacy, logic, and math. AI grades check-ins instantly; charts update as students complete their two-minute weekly activities.
Tip: More data points = more accurate trends. Encourage weekly use.
