  3. Rearrange these groups using “Change Order.”
  4. A group from any section can be added to the “My Groups/Favorites” section by selecting the star. Remove favorited groups by clicking the star again.
    • My Groups/Favorites are the only groups available in your Staff App.

Group Page

Whether you organize students into “Houses” (think Harry Potter) or want to award points to sports teams, you can make a group to represent any collection of students. Students can exist in many groups, though they only have one account where their points are deposited.

Create a New Group

  1. To create a new group, from the left-side “Main Menu” choose “Groups”, then click the plus group button. This will create a group assigned to the current user.
  2. Be descriptive in naming groups, but you don’t need to include a teacher or staff name with it. The staff member who owns the group will have his or her name noted with the group, for example, “1st Period – 7th Grade ELA,” “Golf Team,” or “4th Grade”. Use the “Edit Owners” button to add additional owners to the group.
