Adding Courses

Courses are programs of study; you must add courses before you can add the classes in which you will enroll students. Courses are linked to schools, but unlike classes, courses stay in your database from year to year until you delete or change them.

Follow the steps below to add courses to a school. (If you can export your course information from other software, you may be able to import the courses instead of adding them one by one.)

1. On the Home page, select Courses and Classes.



2. Select Add Course.
3. Enter the information about the course:
• School: If you are a district administrator or district staff member, you must choose the school(s) for the course. To choose one school, use the drop-down list. To choose more than one, click Select Multiple Schools, check the schools that need this course added, and select Save.
• Course Name: Enter or change the course name (required).
• Subject: The subject is not required, but it can help identify the purpose of the course. Use the drop-down list if you want to select a subject.
• Intended Grade: The grade is not required, but it can help you identify the purpose of the course. In the Intended Grade drop-down list, EE means Early Education, Pre-K means Pre-Kindergarten, K means Kindergarten, None means no grade has been assigned, N/A means a grade does not apply to this course, and 12+ means the course is for students beyond the 12th grade.



4. When you have finished entering the course information, select Save and Add if you want to add more courses or Save if you want to add just this course.

If you decide not to add the course that you have entered, select Cancel.

If you have added a course to multiple schools, select Done when the program notifies you that the course has been added.
