Welcome administrators!
We are so glad you are here! The checklist below will help you get your account ready for the new school year.
Have you scheduled your professional development? Training days during back-to-school season are in high demand. Schedule any necessary training as far in advance as possible to ensure you get your requested date.
Getting started
Check the End-of-year data management page for step-by-step instructions on how to clean up data from the previous year. Cleanup should be performed before the start of the new school year and should not overlap with any summer school programs.
