Rosters

• Shows each student with grade level, flags (These can include custody information, LEP information, and IEP information.), and medical alerts.
• Can click on a student name and it takes you to an overview for that student.  While you are looking at a student you can click “to student information” in blue at the top of the student information, and it will take you to a much more detailed screen, including the student’s schedule, transcript, and test scores.
• The Roster can be viewed by All (the default), Active, Incoming or Dropped.
• Report Options: The Roster can be printed with or without student addresses.

To get back to Campus Instruction you need to select the box in the upper right corner and then select Campus Instruction.

• Name the chart
• Set the number of columns and rows you want, as well as if you want space between the seats.

• Once you have created seating charts you will be able to use them for attendance.

Student Groups

You would use this in order to assign some students within a course an assignment, without having to assign it to everyone, and then exempt the students who would not be doing the assignment.  (This becomes confusing to students to see assignments which they are not to complete.)  The most common uses of this include: IEP students with reduced assignments or extended time, students with extended absences, or students with transfer grades from a different teacher or period.

• Name the group (This can be seen by students.)
• Add students to the group.
