Step 1: Integrate your SIS/LMS with Flint
Getting started with Flint is simple. Your school email domain (e.g. @orchardacademy.org) is already whitelisted, allowing staff and students to log in at app.flintk12.com without needing an invite. As a school admin, you'll be able to manage access, monitor usage, and support your team.
There are two ways to get teachers and students connected:
🔁Option 1: Connect Your SIS or LMS (Recommended)
TImporting rosters from your SIS or LMS (e.g., Blackbaud, Canvas, Google Classroom, Schoology) makes setup effortless:
Teachers’ classes appear automatically
Students are pre-assigned to the right activities
Saves time and reduces manual setup
🛠 Option 2: Manually Invite Teachers
Prefer to start small or don’t use an LMS? No problem. You can invite teachers directly to Flint. Once they create and share activities, students can access them using their school email.
Step 2: Provide Training for Teachers
We offer free and flexible training options to fit your needs - whether it's self-guided or full staff PD sessions.
All paid Flint licenses include on-demand PD at no extra cost. We’re happy to help with a custom rollout plan - reach out to our Head of Customer Success, Jacob Edington, at [email protected].
