For
the schools who are approaching 2nd quarter report cards, here are some
FastDirect functions that may need to be addressed:
- Closing
input
for 2nd mid-quarter reports
- Opening
up teacher input for 2nd
quarter reports
- Closing
input for 2nd
quarter reports when teachers have finished importing grades
The
winter season can sometimes mean changes in school schedules and
closings because of weather. If your school closes due to inclement
weather, you will need to change the Master School Calendar to reflect
that those days are non-attendance days. To notify your staff and
parents of any closings, late starts or early dismissals, use the
FDbroadcast feature. These broadcasts can go directly from the school
to the parents’ cell phones and email accounts, keeping everyone
informed instantly! Click 'Read more' to find out more on:
