Set Up Your Organization

Last updated

After creating your account, your next step is to refine your organization's public-facing profile. The details you set here appear on your enrollment applications and communications with families, so it's worth getting them right.

Where to Find These Settings

Navigate to Account in the left sidebar, then select the General tab. You'll find your organization details at the top of the page.

Organization Details

These fields control how your school appears to families across Lazarus:

  • Organization Name — Your school's name as it should appear publicly. This was set during sign-up, but you can update it here if needed.
  • Primary Email — The email address shown on your enrollment applications. Use a general contact email (like info@yourschool.edu) rather than a personal one — families may reply to this address.
  • Primary Phone Number — Displayed on your public enrollment applications. Use your school's main phone line.
  • Website — Your school's website URL, shown on applications so families can learn more about you.

After making changes, click Save to update. If you change your mind, click Undo to revert to the previous values.

School Type

During sign-up, you may have selected a school classification. You can review or change this at any time. Lazarus supports 17 school types:

Alternative, Boarding, Charter, Homeschool, Homeschool co-op, International, Montessori, Online private, Private independent, Private microschool, Private religious, Public, Public magnet, Public virtual, Special education, Unschooling, and Waldorf.

Choose the classification that best fits your organization. This helps Lazarus understand your school type and may influence future platform features.

What Families See

The organization name, email, phone, and website you set here are all visible on your enrollment application forms. When a family opens your application, they'll see your organization name prominently displayed along with your contact information. Making sure these details are accurate and professional helps build trust with prospective families from the very first interaction.

Your logo also appears on applications — see the Add Your Branding guide for how to upload it.
