Manually editing the student roster is not available to districts that sync student rosters through an automated integration, including Clever, DnA, and One Roster.
To manually edit the existing roster:
- Go to the District Manager (or School Manager) tab.
- Select View Student Roster from under Student Info. Only District Managers and School Managers can edit the existing roster.
- To add a student, select New.
Please Note: If you are trying to add a student to a new classroom user who has not been added via a roster upload, you will first need to create a class in District/School Setup > Add New Class.
This brings up a window for adding a new student. Make sure the correct school and grade are selected, then fill in the remaining data and select Create.
Note: The Teacher User ID is the teacher's login username (usually their email address), not the Teacher ID. As you start typing the username, a drop-down box will appear with available options. Select the appropriate teacher's email from the drop-down menu. The teacher account must exist in FastBridge prior to adding the student. For any teachers not yet in the system, an initial roster file will need to be uploaded before any students can be added or edited manually. Please refer to Roster Formatting and Uploading a Student Roster.
Editing an Existing Student
To edit an existing student:
- Type all or part of the name (or student ID number) into the search box to make finding the student easier.
- Select to highlight the entry.
- Select Edit.
This brings up a window with the selected student's info. Make your changes and select Update.
Deleting an Existing Student
To delete an existing student:
- Type all or part of the name (or student ID number) into the search box to make finding the student easier.
- Select to highlight the entry.
- Select Delete.
If you are sure you want to delete the student, select Delete.
Note: Deleting a student from the roster does not remove them, or their data, from the underlying database. It only affects their current visibility. Students who have been removed from the roster can be added back in to the roster at any time. Make sure the same student ID number is used.
Duplicating an Existing Student
To assign a student to more than one teacher, or to start from a copy of an existing student:
- Type all or part of the name (or student ID number) into the search box to make finding the student easier.
- Select to highlight the entry.
- Select Duplicate.
Change the Teacher User ID (or whatever other information you want to be changed), and select Create from existing.
This will create a duplicate entry for the student. For more information on why you might want to duplicate a student entry, see Linking a Student to More Than One Teacher.
