Creating Student Groups in Your Gradebook

Do you have a need to create students groups for your classes in Skyward? There is a feature in the gradebook that allows you to create up to 10 groups in one class. An example use for this feature would be if you have more than one grade level in a classroom and you wish to use a separate set of assignments for each group. The directions in the link below will explain how you can create separate student groups and also how to create assignments for one group or all.

DON'T FORGET! Teachers Can Edit Guardian Emails in Skyward!

Just in case you missed it!!!! A new feature is available for teachers to use in Skyward. While on the student profile screen there is a button available for teachers to Edit Guardian Emails. If a parent gives you an email address that is not in Skyward you will now be able to add it yourself!

Click on the button found on the Student Profile screen:

Highlight the guardian you wish to update and then click the EDIT button.

Enter the Home Email address and click SAVE!
