User Roles and Permissions
Great Minds supports four user roles:
- Student
- Teacher
- School Administrator
- District Administrator
You can review the roles assigned to your account by clicking your initials at the top right and selecting Switch Roles. See Toggle Between Roles for more information.

Administrators and teachers have access to different types of data and content for all Great Minds® digital products. The chart below clarifies the types of data and content that each user role has access to, and also specifies which class and content management tasks that teachers and administrators can perform.
User roles are assigned through your district's rostering method. See the resources linked below for more information on assigning roles for your rostering method:
⚠️ User roles, including the permissions, features, and data accessible to each role, cannot be customized.
