Load Student Schedules

This loader will allow the user to manually load students into specific classes in the master schedule. It is very handy in New Year scheduling in which a listed group of students will be directly scheduled into a section that is not going to move or be changed, such as Athletic PE.

6. The user will notice that the course listings appear to be doubled for courses lasting two semesters or more. By default, the user will pick the first instance of the class and the second semester of the course will be automatically selected also. This is normal.
   • If the user wants to schedule the student to only a single semester of the course, slide the scroll bar to the see the semesters offered, then deselect the row of the semester that is not needed.
   •

    • Select the students and class or classes scheduled earlier. Click the “Undo” button. This will take the students out of the class or classes.
11. A Final Note: Remember at the setup box there was a setting for “Save as Manual Scheduled”? If the user selected this before scheduling students with this utility, the classes scheduled will remain if any subsequent automatic scheduling is performed. In other words, the auto scheduler will leave these classes in place and work to schedule other requests around these classes.
