Stay In-Touch, Stay Involved, Stay Engaged
As part of our commitment to partnership with our parents and schools, we’re excited to offer a new way for families to stay in the loop and engaged in their child’s Brainy Bytes experience.
By partnering with ClassDojo, we’ve created a centralized space where parents stay informed and connected to their child’s Brainy Bytes journey—while students enjoy learning and building connections beyond the classroom.
BEYOND THE COURSE

Strengthening Parent-Instructor Connections
At Brainy Bytes, we understand the importance of keeping parents informed and involved. Our new Family Portal, powered by ClassDojo, offers:
Instant Messaging: Secure, real-time communication between you and your child’s instructor, fostering a collaborative environment.
Class Updates: Stay updated with photos, videos, and announcements about your child’s classroom activities.
Language Support: Messages can be translated into over 130 languages, ensuring clear communication for all families.
This platform bridges the gap between home and classroom, making you an active participant in your child’s STEM journey.
Visualize Your Child's Learning Journey
The Family Portal provides a comprehensive view of your child’s progress:
Student Portfolios: Access digital portfolios showcasing your child’s work and achievements.
Behavior Tracking: Monitor feedback points and behavioral trends to support positive development.
Course Progression: Stay informed about upcoming courses and tutoring opportunities tailored to your child’s interests.
These tools empower you to support and celebrate your child’s growth every step of the way.


Engaging STEM Adventures with New Friends
Beyond the classroom, Dojo Islands offers a virtual space where learning meets play.
Creative Challenges: Children engage in building activities that enhance problem-solving and teamwork skills.
Safe Social Interaction: A secure environment where kids can connect and collaborate with classmates during and after their class/camp.
STEM Exploration: Interactive games and activities that make science, technology, engineering, and math exciting and accessible.
Dojo Islands transforms screen time into meaningful, educational experiences that your child will love.
How to Get Connected
Upon registering your child for a Brainy Bytes course, you’ll receive a personalized invitation to connect to our ClassDojo Family Portal. This secure link allows you to create your own parent account, providing a direct connection to your child’s class and instructor.
Separate Access for Parents and Students
ClassDojo offers distinct accounts for parents and students, each tailored to their unique roles:
Parent Accounts: Enable you to receive updates, view your child’s progress, and communicate directly with instructors.
Student Accounts: Allow students to engage with class activities, submit assignments, and explore features like Dojo Islands.
While both accounts can be linked for convenience, they maintain separate access to ensure privacy and appropriate content for each user.
Centralized Learning Experience
Once connected, your parent account becomes a centralized hub for all current and future Brainy Bytes courses your child enrolls in. This unified platform simplifies tracking your child’s educational journey, making it easier to stay informed and engaged across multiple classes and activities.
