Scheduling

Scheduling is a powerful ability to plan and organize ahead. You'll need to create groups for your kids first, start there if you haven't already done so. After you have groups setup you can add an activity to a group by tapping the calendar icon in the lower right corner of the screen while viewing an activity.

Content_Schedule_Button

The next screen needs the group you're scheduling the activity for and a start date.

Once you've saved the scheduled activity you can view the calendar for the group to see your schedule for any particular group.

Schedule for others: Some afterschool Program Directors may handle scheduling of content for all teachers. You do not need to be a group member to schedule content for each group. Simply choose the group while scheduling an activity and any teachers for that group will see the scheduled content.
