The New Student Alerts tab is a great way for teachers to keep up with important information regarding their students and roster changes.


The New Student Alerts page will appear if teachers receive a new student alert, and will appear as a new section in the class navigation menu/sidebar. Upon entering a class, teachers may be redirected to this tab once a day, until all alerts have been successfully acknowledged.


These are the types of alerts that will be shown here:


New students have been added to your class
All teachers will receive an alert on this page when there is a new student added to the class. Teachers will be given a dropdown with an Acknowledge button to acknowledge these changes, as well as a "Transfer grades" link, to help conveniently move any applicable grades from a previous class section into the new one. For more information, please see our article on our Transfer Scores Tool.


Students dropped from your class

Teachers will also receive a separate notification about any students that have been dropped from the class.


IEP/504/BIP Plans Acknowledgement
Inside the New Student Alerts page, teachers will be able to find a small section specifically made for students that have an IEP (or an Individualized Education Program), a 504 plan, and/or a BIP. 


To dismiss this alert, teachers will need to go to the IEP/504/BIP tab of the class and acknowledge all students' plans.
