One free platform for every youth program you run

Community centers, after school, clubs, and camps, all in one place. It costs your program nothing, and we never sell or share your families' information.

“It's really important that we're able to directly communicate in a way that aligns with our mission and vision with our families — and ClassDojo allows us to do that instantly.”

Reach every family, in every language

Between multiple sites, changing schedules, and families with a lot on their plate, updates get missed. ClassDojo gives your staff one simple place to share a reminder, a photo from the day, or an announcement for everyone, translated into the language each family reads.

Frequently asked questions

Is ClassDojo free for our corps?
Yes — ClassDojo is free for your corps, your program staff, and your families, at every center and site you run. ClassDojo offers optional services directly to families, like ClassDojo Plus and Dojo Tutor, and that's what keeps it free for everyone else. We never sell personal information, and we never share it with advertisers.

Which age groups does ClassDojo work for?
Corps and centers use ClassDojo with every age they serve, from early childhood through teen programs. Staff choose what each group sees.

How do our staff get set up?
Each staff member creates an account and sets up their group in a few minutes — no IT project, no training day.

How do families join?
Staff share an invite link or code, and families connect from the free app on their phone. Many families already use ClassDojo with their child's school, so there's often nothing new to download at all.

How is our program's data protected?
Your program's information belongs to your program. ClassDojo is COPPA-compliant, never sells personal information, and never shares it with advertisers — see our privacy and security page for the full detail.

Can directors see what staff share with families?
Yes. Authorized admins can review communication records, helping directors stay informed and support their teams.

We run more than one site. How does that work?
Each site runs its own groups, while directors manage them all from one account. You can send an announcement to every family in your organization or to a single site, and see a real-time feed of updates from across your sites. Most programs start with one site and add the rest once staff have seen how it works.
