What is ClassDojo?

ClassDojo is a platform that connects teachers, students, and parents. It allows teachers to share reports with parents and students and offers classroom management support by reinforcing positive behaviors and tracking areas for growth.

What is LiveSchool?

LiveSchool is an interactive platform that improves school culture by providing a unified system for school-wide behavior management and PBIS. It offers easy tracking, consistent feedback, and meaningful rewards to encourage positive student behavior.

Why do schools purchase LiveSchool?

When schools have many teachers using their own ClassDojo accounts, it can be difficult to get on the same page and provide consistency to students. Administrators struggle to see the data and identify trends in student behavior throughout the day. Plus, teachers aren’t aware of how students are doing in other classes.

Enter LiveSchool!

LiveSchool focuses on being a school-wide system where all teachers and students are on one school account. This makes it extremely easy for everyone to see how often a student has been recognized and if the child may need extra support.

With LiveSchool’s Insights reports, educators are enabled to delve deep into student performance and behavioral trends.

Plus, schools can run a store and/or House competitions to make the points meaningful!

LiveSchool takes the issue of security and privacy very seriously. Unlike ClassDojo, which has faced criticism and even bans due to privacy concerns, LiveSchool has a robust privacy policy in place. It ensures that all student information is secured and protected and adheres strictly to all relevant data protection laws and regulations. Furthermore, LiveSchool never shares or sells student data to third parties. It also provides schools with full control over their data, allowing them to manage, export or delete it as they see fit.

Simply put, schools choose LiveSchool for its advanced features, ease of use, and strong emphasis on privacy.

How to Set Up LiveSchool

Schools can configure their accounts according to their preferences using the customizable features offered by LiveSchool. Let’s break down the steps:

Step 1: Compile behaviors for your rubric

Administrators can gather the ‘positive’ and ‘needs work’ points from their teacher’s ClassDojo accounts to determine which behaviors should go on their school-wide rubric in LiveSchool.

Use our Google Form Template to gather your staff’s points →

Step 2: Create categories for your rubric

Once behaviors are determined, create categories to organize the point opportunities. This will make it easier for teachers to quickly award points throughout the day. Common categories include the Three R’s (Respect, Responsible, Ready), the school’s acronym, or following an established framework like CHAMPS, Leader in Me, or SEL.

Feel free to check out our Behavior Rubrics Example page showcasing how LiveSchool Customers have organized their school-wide rubrics.

Step 3: Decide on negative points

There are two questions to answer regarding negative points in LiveSchool:

Schools can choose to only track negative behaviors and not have those points come out of student bank accounts.

Step 4: Choose a reward system

Whether you want to offer a school store, monthly incentive activities, team competition with House Points, or all of the above, LiveSchool can support it!

Dulles School of Excellence

When Larry Williams set out to create a behavior management system for his school, Dulles School of Excellence in Chicago, he knew he didn’t want to use a paper-based system. So, they went the digital route with ClassDojo.

Unfortunately, a major issue was quickly identified: No school-wide rubric and little data meant struggles with consistency and fidelity.

When Chicago Public Schools decided to ban ClassDojo due to security and privacy risks, Larry found LiveSchool.

After one year of implementation, the school reached 100% adoption, had fewer suspensions, and logged over 35,000 positive interactions.
