Maintaining Period/Block Codes

Period/block codes represent the periods or blocks that make up a school day and are used in period attendance and student scheduling. If you make changes to these codes, you must make them in both GradeBook and StudentInformation.

1.On the Administrator Home Page, below Named Codes, click Period/Block Codes.

2.On the Period/Block Codes screen, in the Name drop-down list, select the desired named code.

3.You can perform any of the following options:

•Add codes to the list.

•Delete codes from the list by selecting the checkbox in the Delete column in the row of the code you want to remove.

•Copy the list to a new list.

Note: The class that displays on the Period Attendance screen when accessed from the Teacher Home Page is the class that is meeting based on the current time of day and appropriately configured period/block code start times and durations. If both the start times and durations are not set up, the first class listed on the Teacher Home Page displays by default on the Period Attendance screen when accessed from the Teacher Home Page.
