Extended Care Only Providers
This page describes the usage of Silent Dismissal for entities that provide extended care for students that are arriving from multiple schools.
Creating Origin Groups
To aid in checking in students it is desirable to create separate Extended Care groups that represent each bulk arrival of students.
For example, a school bus may arrive from a single school with multiple students or a public bus may arrive with students from several schools. For this configuration item, two different groups are suggested, one for each arrival vehicle rather than one for each originating school.
Perform this operation as an administrator by navigating on the top menu to Groups / New.
On the New Group page, enter the information as follow:
- Group Type: After Care
- Group Name: provide a name that allows staff to easily identify the group of students such as Wild Oak Elementary or City Bus 913
- Text Color: leave as black
- Location:
