Students

Students may only be managed by users with an administrative account.

If your district integrates SameGoal with your student information system, much of the process of managing students (eg adding, updating) is handled automatically via a nightly student/parent demographics integration. Manual student additions and updates are fairly infrequent, and for corner case situations (eg adding preschool students if they are not entered in your student information system).

However, if your district does not integrate SameGoal with your student information system, all student management must be performed in the web interface.
