As a District administrator, you are responsible for loading your schools, classrooms, staff, and students into Typing Agent. The most efficient and error-proof way to get your school's data set up is to load them in this order: Schools, classrooms, then staff, then students.
Schools can be added in the following ways:
In bulk with a manual uploaded CSV file.
Through a third-party rostering system such as ClassLink, Clever or Google Classroom
By individual school upload
CSV Document
(Note: In order to format correctly, CSV files needs to be saved as a UTF-8 encoded file.)
There are two methods of uploading your schools using a CSV file. Sample CSV templates are available wherever the uploading of schools is permitted. They detail the information required to complete each column to have a successful upload.
Note: the program accepts letters, numbers, and the special characters _ (underscore), - (dash), and @ (at).
Method 1:
You can upload your school via CSV file by navigating to Upload Your Schools from your Dashboard.
From here, you will be directed to upload your CSV file.
Method 2:
You can upload your schools using a CSV file by navigating to School Management from your Dashboard.
From here, click the green “+” button at the bottom right-hand side of the page.
Now, select the option to Import Schools.
From here, you will be directed to upload your CSV file.
Individual Upload
You can upload your schools individually by navigating to School Management from your Dashboard.
From here, click the green “+” button at the bottom right-hand side of the page.
Now, select the option to Add Single School.
