Seesaw - How to Create a new Seesaw family account

🧰 Seesaw requires an invite from your child's teacher in order to sign up. Your child's teacher will provide you with a paper, email, or text invite (the invite will include a QR code or link). If you do not have this please contact your child's teacher.

3. Sign in with your email address and password.
