Configure Teacher Defaults

Default permissions set up in this window are automatically inherited by users that are marked as Teachers. A Teacher is a person that has been added under Personnel and has the Faculty check box marked with a check mark.

When a new user is set up the default permissions for that user are displayed in the setup window. You can override these defaults by clicking on the buttons in the setup window for the individual user. If changes are made to the default Teacher permissions, they are passed on to all users that are type Teacher. However, if you have previously changed a permission for Teacher B, and then changed the default for that permission, Teacher B would not be affected.

Buttons with an X indicate that access to the selected item is permitted. Buttons that are blank indicate that access is denied to the selected item. Users may have permission to View, Modify or Print Reports for selected items.

Note: Teachers do not have options for Setup and Data Management features. To have access to these features a user must be an Administrator.

Note: Teacher Permissions allow users to see only those students associated with the teacher either by a Homeroom number, a scheduling roster or a grade book roster.
