How to add or remove PTO/PTA parent admin accounts
Parents at a school can be granted special administrative permissions on HelpAtSchools that allow them to:
- Manage ANY volunteer signup at the school.
- View directory opt-in statistics and download directory data.
- View and search historical volunteer information.
- Edit the "About our school" page.
To grant or rescind "pto_admin" permissions:
- Go to Admin->Manage Users
- Search for and find the parent.
- Click on the small "change" link in the "Role" column.
- In the Change User Role window, select "PTO Administrator" from the New Role list.
IMPORTANT: NEVER give any parent a "Staff with Admin Privileges" or "School Registrar" role. That is a security risk.
- Click Change Role.
To quickly see which parents have PTO_admin roles at the school:
- Go to Admin->Manage Users and type "PTO_admin" in the search field.
- To rescind PTO_admin permissions, click on the "change" link in the "Role" column.
- Select Verified Parent or Staff and click Change Role.
