Once teachers and classrooms have been created in the database, LEPs must connect teachers to classrooms each semester.  As with other types of information, teachers can be connected to classrooms manually or via upload.

Important: When connecting teachers to classrooms each semester, it is important that you specify at least one lead teacher for each classroom.

Manual

Select the Classrooms tab, then click Edit beside the classroom you are linking teachers to

Once you are on the screen to edit a classroom, choose the Staff tab, then click Import Staff.  

Using the boxes to the left, select the staff that are teaching in that classroom. When all the teachers are selected, click the Add button at the bottom of the page

After adding the teachers, next you may need to click Edit by each individual teacher, and correct their role in that classroom, for that semester

Upload

Select the Upload tab and click New Upload

From the New Upload page, you will select Staff [per Classroom] from the Select Measure dropdown.  You are able to download a Staff per Classroom template (and a number of other templates) and then upload the template once it is completed.  Click the Choose File button to select your Excel data file to upload. 

Go to the Documents section of FPG’s SharePoint site to find a data dictionary of the variables to use in uploads (codes for Wave Type, etc.).  The data dictionaries are in the Educareis Website Dictionaries folder
