Getting Started

campusJr helps schools manage daily administration, teaching tasks, fee tracking, announcements, and reports from one platform.

The school web portals remain the main setup and administration experience. The campusJr mobile app is also available for supported teacher, parent, and student workspaces.

School admin dashboard

Start by signing in through the web portal for your role. The current school-facing web roles are school admin, principal, accountant, teacher, and librarian.

Signing in on mobile

Teachers, parents, and students who have a supported school membership can sign in to the mobile app with their school-provided credentials.

  • After signing in, choose the workspace that matches the school and role you need to use.
  • If there is only one available mobile workspace, campusJr opens it automatically.
  • Some legitimate roles may appear as unavailable when that mobile experience has not been released; use the appropriate web portal or contact your school instead.
  • A platform-only account cannot open a school mobile workspace. Use the platform sign-in route for that account.

Allow notifications when prompted if you want mobile alerts for new messages and announcements. You can change this later in the device settings.

  • A school admin account.
  • The current academic year and terms.
