Getting Your School Off The Ground – Managing Students

You’ve taken care of the admin stuff, but now it’s time to get those warm bodies into your classrooms.

Below we’re going to look at how to register students to your school and get them set up for classes.

Adding a Student

Here’s how you add a student to your school:

Use the sidebar navigation then navigate to School, then Students
Make sure you’ve selected the Students tab from the top navigation, then click Add Student
Enter the name and optionally the email address of the student
Check the box next to “Send Login Instructions by Email* to send your student access instructions to enroll in your school
Once you’re happy with the selection, click “Add Student*

Assigning Students to Classes

There are two ways that you can assign students to classes.

The first is by enrolling them in the class directly.

Here’s how you do it:

Navigate to the class you would like to add students to
Click Enroll Students under Tools
Select the students from the available list or search for them by name
Click New Student if you would like to add a new student
To review your selection, click Review Checkout
Once you’re happy with all the details, click Complete Checkout And Enroll

You also can enroll a student with Quick Enroll. This tool allows you to search for existing classes and students and enroll them instantly. You can also enroll multiple students in multiple courses simultaneously.

Taking Attendance

Here’s you take attendance of a class:

* Navigate to the class you would like to take attendance

Click on Take Attendance under the Roster tab
Select the date you want to check attendance for
Click Search

After you’ve found and selected the date you would like to take attendance for, check the box under “Present” if a student is in the class, or leave the box unchecked if they’re absent.
