How to Reset a Student's Password

We know that a forgotten password can bring a great music lesson to a sudden halt. To help you keep your class moving without a hitch, you can reset your students' passwords directly from the People page.

Note: Password reset only applies to accounts that sign in with an email + password. If your student signs in via Google, Microsoft, or an LMS (Canvas, Schoology, etc.), their password is managed by that provider — ask your school IT admin to reset it there instead.
