ClassDojo

ClassDojo's mission is to give every child on Earth an education they love.

We started by building a network that connects teachers, children, and families. ClassDojo’s flagship app is the #1 communication app connecting K-8 teachers, children, and families, globally. They use it to share what’s happening throughout the day through photos, videos, messages, and activities. It is actively used at an unprecedented scale: in over 95% of US schools, reaching ~51 million children in ~180 countries, all built by a team of 65 people [1]). We are now beginning to use this network to give kids the best learning experiences in the world, far beyond those a standard school can provide. The app is free for teachers and includes Messages that are automatically translated into more than 190 languages, Stories for sharing classroom photos and videos on a private feed, and Events with automatic calendar reminders. Teachers and families can also use Points and Big Ideas to support social-emotional learning, while students document their work in Portfolios and teachers manage attendance and timers through a Teacher Toolkit.

The company is building a virtual space centered on learning through play, with the stated aim of making learning experiences available regardless of zip code or income. ClassDojo also operates a Privacy Center that explains how it protects teachers, families, and students.

We hire for talent density. Our team comprises the most talented, entrepreneurial, and innovative teammates from around the world, with deep backgrounds in education and large scale consumer internet, including Instagram, Netflix, Dropbox, Uber, Y Combinator, and more. We’re building a company where the most talented people want to work. We believe you’ll do the best work of your life here—and you’ll pioneer the future of education, too.
