Hi beautiful people,

Good morning,

Is this a custom page you have in your PowerSchool? If you are asking how to add information for a group of students, you can do these two ways. 

Change Student Field Values (this works if all the students have the same values, for example the same school):

• Select your group of students on the start page
• Click on the down arrow under your student list 
• Click on Change Student Field Values
• Enter the field you would like to change in the first box
• Enter the information you are changing to in the second box
• Press Submit
• Then another page will appear to check if those are the changes you would like to make, and press submit

Quick Import:

Create an excel spreadsheet with the fields as the header. Use the students ID number to identify the student(s) you want to change. It will look like this

• Once you have all the information save the file as a .txt file
• Go to Quick Import (Data and Reporting>>>Imports>>>Quick Import
• Select the student’s table
• Choose your file 
• Check the box for Suggest Field Map
• Press Submit

• On the next page make sure your fields match
• Check the box to exclude first row
• Under Advanced Import Options Check Update the student's record with the information from the file being imported. (Note: When selected, students will be transferred to the school ID assigned in the import file if it matches an existing School Number in PowerSchool.)
• Press Submit
