# Review school students and guardians

Open [Schools](https://docs.ordering.co/docs/products/dashboard/schools/), select the school, and choose **Students**. Filter by **Grade** or **Classroom** to narrow the directory. Select a student row or card to open their record.

## Review a student record

The panel shows the student code, classroom, grade, dietary tags, allergies, and linked guardians when available. If the record fails to load, select **Retry**. On desktop, **Open as page** expands the panel. On a phone, use **Back** to return to the list.

## Manage guardian links

1. In **Guardians**, use **Guardian to assign** to find an existing customer account. Check the customer name and email before choosing the account.
2. Select **Assign parent** and verify that the guardian appears in the student record. To unlink an existing guardian, use **Remove** beside that account and verify that the association disappears.

For adding a student through their guardian's account, go to **Users → Customers**, open the customer record, and use **School students** when available. The school directory is for reviewing student details and linking guardian accounts.

Use a synthetic student and guardian for screenshots or training. A school record may expose names, contact information, and dietary details.
