B.O.Y. I’m Glad to Be with TeachTown! (Part II)

Beginning of Year Updates for Administrators: Bulk Data Management, Grade Level Tracking

We are pleased to announce the release of brand new bulk data management features, accessible to TeachTown administrators on the Manage Students page. These bulk edit features will help you get your lists set faster so you can spend more time supporting teachers and students. The Manage Students page has a new look and feel, including the ability to take bulk action to manage student profiles by adjusting:

  • Grade levels
  • Student licenses
  • Teacher-student associations
  • Transferring students
  • And more!

⮞ Manage Students

Managing licenses and lists takes time. We’re reducing that time with the ability to manage this data in bulk from the newly updated Manage Students page. We think you’ll love the new look and feel!

Manage Students Page

You will see a simpler, more intuitive layout of your students, including their date of birth, grade level (if assigned), primary facilitator, license, and status.

In the top right corner, clicking on the “Bulk Edit Selections” link will take you to a tab that will allow you to edit these features.

  • Edit facilitators who are assigned to students, including adjusting the primary facilitator and adding additional facilitators. You may also remove facilitators and/or override facilitators. If a teacher is leaving the district, no problem! You can now disassociate that facilitator from the students whom you have selected.
    • (Reminder: teachers need to be un-assigned to students at the end of each school year in preparation for their new teachers at the start of the next school year)
  • Edit student licenses in bulk. Need to assign the enCORE Whole Child licenses to students at all the new-TeachTown schools in your district? You can do that from this page!
  • Assign a grade level (PreK – 12) for any active student. You will be able to view the grade level from the Student Profile page.

Edit Student Profile

  • Change the Status from Active to Inactive and vice versa.
  • Transfer students from to a different school within the District.

Through the filter button, you can view groups of students by status, grade level, or license assignment. In the image shown below, grades 9 – 12 are checked to produce a list of all high school students as an example.

Filter Features

As a reminder, you also have the ability to bulk import and export student and teacher lists, identify potential duplicates, and merge when appropriate to do so. These tech tools are additional supports for mass updates for licensing and rostering.

In the Resource Center, there’s a folder just for Admin. Additionally, you can always contact your dedicated TeachTown representative for help.

Ease Administrative Burden

The beginning of the school year is a busy time for everyone, including & especially special education administrators. You’ve got compliance review, new teacher training, student schedules, and so much more. We’ve built the tools to bring more ease and greater efficiency to the admin burden ahead of the new year. Our system will do the heavy lifting around student data management and integration to support a streamlined start to your new school year.

Cheers to the new school year!
