Maintain District
This chapter describes how to enter and maintain your district information in GradeBook, so
homerooms, courses, classes and scheduling are set up properly. If you are integrated with a
student information system, most scheduling is done in that system and imported into GradeBook.
However, there may be cases where you want to create additional courses and classes directly in
GradeBook. In addition, there are additional settings within GradeBook that you may wish to
adjust on imported classes, such as marking study halls as nongraded classes.
Add Rooms
Rooms are used in setting up homerooms and classes.
If your school district is integrated with a student information system, rooms are imported into
GradeBook from that system. If changes are necessary, you should make them in the student
information system.
If your school district is not integrated with a student information system, you must set up room
lists for each school during the initial GradeBook setup.
1. On the Administrator Home Page under District Setup, select Rooms.
2. On the Rooms screen in the School list, select the appropriate school building.
3. In the Room column, click in an empty field, and enter the room name or number.
4. In the Description field, enter a brief description of the room.
Note: The maximum amount of characters is 50 for the Description field.
5. Click Save.
6. To continue adding rooms, repeat step 2 through step 5.
