School Store
The School Store feature enables you to use Classcraft to manage your PBIS store, which can be accessed from a desktop or mobile browser. Instead of using paper or token currency, students can purchase items of their choosing with their hard-earned Gold Pieces.
Let's see how the School Store works for administrators! Learn more about:

Managing staff and teacher permissions
By default, administrators can all manage and use the School Store. Teachers can all use the School Store but need special permissions to manage it. Finally, staff members need special permissions to use and to manage the School Store.
Editing a teacher's School Store permissions
To change what a teacher can do in the School Store:
- On your School Dashboard, click Teachers in the user section of the side navigation
- Find the teacher on the list and click on their name
- View their User profile
- Under Schools you can enable or disable the following options:
- Sell items to students
- Manage the store's inventory
- This is automatically saved so you can just resume what you were doing then!

Selling items to students
As an administrator, you may be in charge of the School Store. To sell items to students:
- On your School Dashboard, click School Store in the School section
- In the upper navigation select Sell items
- Search the student's name in the text field and select them
- Add as many items to the cart as the student wants to purchase — or can afford
- Use the search bar to find any items or filter by clicking on a category tag
- Click Add to cart to add an item to the cart (even out of stock items can be sold!)
- In the cart, use the up and down arrows to adjust quantity or the trash can icon to remove an item from the cart
- When you're done, click Confirm
Once you complete the transaction, the student’s Gold Pieces are removed from their account. Students can see completed transactions on their Game Feed by clicking on the School tab.
The Class Store
Teachers need access to the School Store feature to use the inventory list you create. Whether or not they have access to the School Store or not, they can use a Class Store with students in their class. This store does not have an inventory list: teachers enter the item description and price in a text field.
