# Users Overview

Users refer to each person using a SchoolDay at all levels, including Administrators, teachers, non-teaching staff, students, or parents. Teachers, staff, students and parents are also called end-users because they utilize all of the educational tools available on SchoolDay without the necessity of having Administrator’s privileges.

The Users tab includes 5 following subtabs:

- Users;
- Classes;
- Active Directory Sync;
- G Suite Sync;
- ADFS Config;

To get to the Users subsection of the Users tab select the Users item from the menu list. The following screen will appear.
