How-to
Creating Blocks
- Select the New Block button
- Click in the block name field. The name can be a teacher's name or some other indicator such as 1A, 1B, etc. If using a teacher's name select from the list that appears. If using some other indicator close the teacher list and type the name of your choice.
- If you select a teacher's name for the block name, the same name will automatically appear in the Homeroom teacher field; otherwise, you will need to click in the homeroom teacher's name field and make the selection from the teacher list.
- Verify the grade. This value will be used to limit the Master Schedule display when selecting courses for each block.
- Click Save New.
- The schedule window will automatically appear. You can not save a new block without entering at least one class record.
- The schedule window will show 2 semesters if the school is a 2x8 school or it will show 4 semesters if the school is a 4x4 school. Click under Semester 1 on the any blank line and the Master Schedule will appear.
- Rearrange the Master Schedule to move the grade column to be visible. (This will save time.) And sort the Master Schedule by Grade for ease of finding the group of courses for the grade level of the block being created.
- You may get a pop up that indicates the class period you have selected on the schedule maintenance screen is not the class period of the course selected. Click OK.
- If the Semester 1 section selected is already in another block, you will get a pop up that allows you to either continue and use it or to cancel. If you click no the window changes back to the schedule maintenance screen. Repeat the selection process to enter a course not found in another block. If you click yes the same pop up will appear for Semester 2; click yes again.
- Repeat the process from step 7 above until all courses in which a particular group of students will receive a grade.
- Close the Schedule Maintenance window with the X at the top right of the window.
To Delete a Block
- Select the block on the right to be deleted by selecting the check box to the left of the block number.
- Then click the delete button at the bottom left. A confirmation pop up will appear. If the block number in the pop up is correct then click YES. If it is incorrect, click No and select the correct block number.
To Change/Edit an Existing Block
- Select the block on the right to be changed by selecting the check box to the left of the block number.
- Then click the change block button at the bottom. Correct the necessary information and click save changes.
