# How to Change or Reset Student Passwords

## Accounts become inactive after 4 incorrect login attempts. Teachers can reactivate student accounts and reset passwords from the class roster.

\*Editing student accounts is only applicable if your district does not use a single sign on such as ClassLink or Clever to access Gallopade.

\*Please note that you CAN reset a password to the previous password, and passwords are required to be a minimum of 5 characters.

 

1\. To reset a student password, from your dashboard, find the student's class and select the **Roster**.

2\. Find the student in the class roster. If the student account is active, you can skip step 3 and go directly to step 4.

3\. If the student has entered an incorrect password 4 or more times and is currently inactive, the first thing you will need to do is enable the account. Select **Enable**. ![](https://support.gallopade.com/hubfs/image-png-Feb-23-2021-01-43-31-16-PM.png)

After selecting Enable, the student will no longer be inactive.
