Manage Lists

Student Lists

Using Student Lists enables teachers to quickly visit the personal pages and accounts of students that they manage in the school. Teachers can also send a message to an entire Student List.

All Teachers have a default "My Students" list to which they can add students that they manage. Teachers can also create additional Student Lists to represent specific groups of students; for example, a teacher could create separate Student Lists for "1st Period Math," "2nd Period Math," "Science Club," and so on.

To add students to your default "My Students" list:
  1. Click the My School tab.
  2. Click My Students in the menu on the left.
  3. Click the Add Students button.
