How to manage school based users in the Portal?

By default, all NYC principals are able to log into the Portal using their NYCPS credentials. From there, a principal can manage access for the staff who work in their school, and delegate admin privileges to other staff members. Any staff member on the school’s pedagogue file with a schools.nyc.gov account will automatically appear in the User Management section of the Portal.
