*If a student's family enables Home Access using an existing student profile in your Epic classroom, the profile's ownership is automatically transferred to the home account. If you wish to create or edit a PIN on a student profile owned by a home account, we recommend that you contact the student's family and request that they create or edit the PIN on the profile from their home account and then let you know the PIN they've created.
