Elementary and Middle School Scheduling

We strongly recommend that you watch the Elem/MS Scheduling instructional videos on
the office professionals page of our website at www.jmcinc.com/office. Click on the
scheduling tab. The instructional videos will provide much more detail and tips about the
scheduling process. Use this form as a guide while you watch the video.

B) Update your course information. Go to Schedules: Course: Edit Course Data. Make
sure each of the items with an arrow below is entered for each course being offered this
year. (If you do not know how to add new courses refer to the instructional video.)

Think Ahead! Do teachers take daily attendance from their classroom via Online
Attendance twice per day? Put one class in period 1, one in period 2, the rest in period 3
and you can keep the day unchecked. Don’t put classes in period 0 unless you have to.

1) Courses – The first stage deals
with reviewing and updating your
course information.

A) Review previously entered
courses. Go to Schedules: Course:
Course Data List to print the
courses you already have entered.
Set up the screen in the way it
looks on the right. This will give
you a print out of all the courses
already entered into your data.
(Make sure to uncheck the “Only
Include Courses With Students
Enrolled” box or you will get a
blank screen because you haven’t
registered any students into classes
yet.)

Sections. Click the Add New button to add a
section.

B) Highlight the courses
into which you want to bulk
load students.

C) Choose whether you
want to bulk load students
by Grade Level or by
Advisor. If you have not
already assigned students to
an Advisor you must do so
before you can bulk load by
Advisor.

D) Click OK.

E) Repeat this step for all
courses to be bulk loaded.

2) Bulk Load Students – The second stage loads/registers all of the students in a
particular grade level, or those assigned to a specific advisor, into a course or courses.

A) Go to Schedules: Develop: Bulk Load Courses.

E) At this point you can review the work you have done by viewing a student’s individual
schedule in Schedules: Student: Edit Schedules. You will see that the students have been
registered/loaded into the classes but they have not been scheduled into the sections of
the courses for which they are registered.

F) If you make a mistake and bulk load students incorrectly you can go to Schedules:
Course: Drop Courses. This will drop/un-register all students from the course you choose.
Then you can go back to Bulk Load Courses to load the correct group into the course.
