How do SchoolMint Grow roles work?

Learn about what access each permission level gives a user in Grow.

Please note: this article applies to users with all roles.

The access you have in Grow is based on the role that your account is assigned. To begin at a summary level, each user role is able to:

1. Enter and manage Touchpoints for her/himself and any user “below”
2. Progress monitor her/himself and any user “below” her/himself on the hierarchy.

There are two types of roles in Grow: School Roles and Network Roles.
