Grandville: Teams Summary

Some schools, most often middle or junior high schools, assign students and teachers to teams to provide the best support and monitoring system.

Teams are either static or dynamic. If you define static teams, you manually assign each student to a particular team. If you create dynamic teams, you define the team name and assign teachers to the teams, but allow the system to decide which students to assign to which teams for the best possible balance.

Grandville - We have 6 different teams that our students are on for core classes.  How do we assign the core teachers to the teams in the system so each student is scheduled within that team?  (All students on a team have the same teachers for Math, LA, Science and Social Studies.)  Also, if a parent makes a team request, how is that put into the system so they are assigned to that team during a load?

Possible enhancement idea: create a "view only" screen for parents/students to preview courses, but not make any selections.

Kenowa Hills- Can we have assistance with figuring out how to edit the number of courses that students must select so that we don't have to use a "filler" course.
