Homeroom Dashboards allow users to filter and view data based on various predefined student groups. These groups can be automatically generated from the district’s Student Information System (SIS) or created/customized by users.

Key Features and Benefits

  • Customization: Users can create personalized views by defining and saving custom student groups.
  • Accessibility: Different access levels are provided based on the user’s role within the district, ensuring that relevant data is visible.
  • Data-driven Decision Making: Enables educators and administrators to make informed decisions based on real-time student data and analytics.

Types of Student Groups 

My Groups

Users can create custom student groups based on specific criteria relevant to their needs. These groups can be saved and accessed for future use. These groups can be accessed anywhere you see a My Student Groups list. 

Static Student Groups 

  • Definition: Contains a specific list of students that does not change unless manually updated.
  • Creation: It can be created manually, imported from an external list, or created using the Smart Student Groups features. Helpful Resource:  Create and Manage a Static Student Group.
  • Use Case: Useful for tracking the same set of students over time.

Smart Student Groups  

  • Definition: Dynamic groups that update nightly based on defined filter criteria.
  • Creation: This involves setting filter criteria (e.g., demographics, enrollment, and behavior) to automatically populate the group. Helpful Resource: "Create and Manage a Smart Student Group."
  • Use Case: Ideal for creating groups that need to dynamically adjust based on changing conditions.

Shared Groups 

Share Groups are automatically generated from your District’s Student Information System (SIS). Under Shared Groups, you will find district-wide or school-specific groupings that can be further narrowed by additional filters, such as specific demographic or academic criteria.
