Some special area and exploratory teachers have questioned what they ought to do if they do not see the correct classes under the classes menu on their flashdrive.

First, this is one of the reasons that part of everyone's "homework" following the first round of training at the start of the year was to open all of their classes. Teachers were to check to make sure that both the classes and students were there. If not, in the middle schools, this should be reported to the assistant principal. In the elementary schools, this should be reported to the school secretary. In either case, if these individuals need help problem solving how to add the class or student, they can contact Sue or Jason. Teachers are not able to add or delete students from PowerGrade. PowerGrade receives this information from the PowerSchool server, which is adjusted on the administrative side by the secretaries (elementary school) or administrators (middle school).

If an administrator or secretary (or you!) looks at the student schedule and everything is there with the correct courses and techers at the correct times, then you can update your flashdrive by "rebuilding the data from the server". All third through fifth grade core teachers have needed to complete this process. It is only a couple of steps and very easy for even the novice computer user. Visit the following Modern Pen entry to learn how to do perform this task that just may solve your problem.

Finally, if your problem persists, please contact your iTech teacher or Sue or Jason. Remember, not only will a member of this group need your flashdrive, but they will need the password, too.
