Student accounts are primarily used by students for learning purposes, while Family accounts serve as a means for parents to actively participate in and support their child's education. Both account types play essential roles in fostering a collaborative and supportive learning environment.
A key difference between student and family accounts is that family members can view and respond to messages sent to the family, and students cannot. Key similarities are that both can download archived journals, view approved work, and like/comment/download/save content.
