  2. Type in a Title.
  3. In the white text area, type in your Note information.
  4. Below Title, there is an option to configure the Note as Make Public or to make the Note Student Visible.
  5. If Make Public is selected and your district displays the "Browse" button on the Student Progress Center, the Note will be visible to everyone who visits the Student Progress Center without requiring a username and password.

  7. If the Note is only for one or a few students, you can click in the field labeled Students, then choose Select Students and select from a list. Leave blank to send the Note to all students.
  8. If you want to include more sections (in addition to the one chosen originally at the bottom of the gradebook screen), also click on Students and then Sections, to chose additional sections.
  9. There are additional filters on the Students set up box if you want to further filter your student list.
  10. A teacher also has the aforementioned abilities immediately after she chooses Teacher Note in her gradebook. See above.
