Set up the School Calendar

Use the calendar to set your district’s operational days. When setting up the calendar, keep in mind the following:

    Set up the calendar at the Central Office.

    Update all days that are the same throughout the district.

    Use the Copy Calendar option on the Calendar tab to duplicate the calendar at all sites.

    Update any sites that vary from the district norm; for example, many high schools have different days off in May.

To set up the school calendar:

1.  Go to Admin > Schools.

2.  On the Schools page, click More Details for the appropriate school.

3.  On the Calendar tab, enter the School Starts and Schools Ends dates for the school year.

When the School Starts date is configured, the effective date of approved or temporarily approved applications that were processed prior to school startup are adjusted accordingly.

4.  Check the Year-Round School checkbox if the school is in session the entire year.

5.  To set school days, click School Day and click the days that the school is open for students.

6.  To set holidays, click Holiday and click the days that the school is closed for students.

7.  Click Save.
