How do I manually add a student to the system?
Students get added to the system from their homeroom page.
Let's say you have a new student named Jim Smith and Jim is in homeroom 1-B.
Click on the Classrooms (Homeroom) menu item, then select 1-B from the list.
If you have sufficient rights, you will see an Add Student button above the list of students.
Click on the button, and fill in the information. You only need a student's first and last name to add them, but if you have parent contact information, you can enter that at this time.
You can also choose to enter just the student information, then invite the parent to add their own contact information. You do this by filling in only the student fields, i.e. first name, last name, nickname, etc with no parent information added, and submitting the information.
Once the student is added, click on their name to go to their profile page. From there, you can use the Invite Parent feature to have the system sent a message to the parent to complete their contact information.
