How Does an Admin Upload a Roster of Students?

As an admin, you can upload a district or school roster by following the below steps.

1.  Log in to your Digital Reader account, and click in to your District/School Dashboard (the blue bar at the top right of your page). If you do not see a blue bar, then you are not an admin; please contact your school or district admin. For help on where to find your account admin(s), see Where Can I Find the Admins on My Account?

6.  Following the instructions posted in the Template Key, complete the fields in the template. Do not change any of the headers, and be careful to include all required information. Please ensure you are using group and classroom names that match what you have included in the Digital Reader platform. For example, if a classroom is Smith-1 in the Digital Reader, but you enter it as 1-Smith on the roster template, you will get an error message.
