My beloved [Code.org](http://Code.org) is now asking for parental permission for kids under 13.  
What a task this will be getting 200+ kids on board. Ughhh

Any workarounds for NYCDOE kids who use a SSO with their school email address?!

We here in New York State have to adhere to Ed Law 2-D. Our tech admin got them to sign off on our legalize, which covered all students’ access (for now). Once it was approved, IT flipped a switch, allowing us to access. We have to go through this process for every program which we create student accounts for. Some never approve the access or don’t get back to us – like Scratch!
