Back to School with Clever
May 2, 2016

We’ve already worked on some awesome features this year and have even more coming soon, but no matter the time of year, most of our updates focus on one big goal: making the upcoming Back to School season the best one yet.
It may seem early to start talking about Back to School, but at Clever, it’s something we think about year-round. How can we make that first day in the fall easier for both districts and applications? What would help alleviate the busiest season for education?
So we did our homework on what it takes for a great Back to School with Clever, and last week, we released a Back to School Guide for districts!
This guide walks districts through every action they need for a successful Back to School with Clever:
- Rolling over student information data for the next school year
- Adding applications and ensuring the right data is shared
- Reviewing their settings for teachers and students
So whether a district is a veteran or it’s their first Back to School season with Clever, they’ll be all set.
Even better, districts can get through all of the steps before this school year even ends, making their summer vacation even more restful and relaxing.
We’re really excited about the work we’ve been doing at Clever—and can’t wait to make this an incredibly successful Back to School.
