Schools and Grade Levels

Adding your schools lets you assign users and teachers to the right place, and makes observation forms show the right grade options.

Adding a school

In your settings, create a school with:

• A name (for example, "Hood River Middle School").
• An optional short code (for example, "HRMS") for quick reference.
• The grade levels the school serves.

Grade levels

Elevate uses standard grade levels from Kindergarten (K) through Grade 12. Select the grades a school serves, and Elevate displays the range for you (for example, "K-5" or "6-8").

When an evaluator starts an observation at that school, the grade choices are limited to the grades you configured — so they only pick from grades that make sense.

Keeping schools current

Schools can be deactivated when they're no longer in use. Deactivating keeps past records intact while removing the school from new selections.

Tip: Set up schools before inviting principals and assistant principals, so you can assign each one to their school as you invite them. See Inviting users.
