Student Roster, Sections, and Groups
Updated over a year ago

Student data is the most important data within August Schools and we make it easy to find! This article walks through the three ways to view the students synced from your Student Information System (SIS).

Roster

When you click on "Students" on the left hand menu, you are brought directly into the student "Roster" page. This student roster populates through the sync between your SIS and August Schools and contains the columns for each of the most important pieces of information about the student.

Clicking on a row in the Student roster opens the student's card to see even more information about the student.

Looking for a specific student? Simply click the filter icon within the Last Name column and a search bar will appear.

Not looking for a specific student, but want to view students that meet a demographic? Multiple columns within the Student Roster have the filter icon to view only the students you need.

Sections

Sections are synced directly from your SIS are not editable within August. The sections are broken down into specific subsets like classes, courses, advisory, sports teams, etc. If edits are necessary to the students within a Section, please make this update within your SIS.

Groups

Student Groups are built directly within August Schools are a saved subset of the student population, i.e. Students with a Peanut Allergy. These groups allow you and other staff to save time by easily accessing and exporting data for these students.

Groups are created with student filters (allergies, conditions, school, grade, etc.) and any modifications to the student record will add or remove them to the group. For example, when you create a group of students with a peanut allergy you do not need to manually add new students marked with a peanut allergy; the system will add the student for you!

Need to export a student list?

Regardless if you are on the student Roster, Sections or Groups page, you can easily download the student list anytime. Files can be exported in bulk from the group by clicking "Download" and choosing the relevant file or plan.
