Districts

Back to School guide

Districts should use the Back to School guide to take them through all the steps they need to prepare them for the new school year. This guide helps you add and set up applications, customize your Clever Portal, and ensure teachers and students can log in successfully. Finish your Back to School guide here!

Clever Badge PNG files

District administrators and school tech leads in districts where Clever Badges are enabled can  now also get the individual student badge PNG files when they download badges for the entire district or schools at a time. A .zip file will now contain PNG files as well as the existing PDF files.  District admins can also download a single student’s Badge as a PNG in the data browser. We got this request a few times in the Clever Community and are excited to be able to have it live for the new school year.

Bulk upload school tech leads

Districts can now bulk upload School Tech Leads in their admins.csv file! We now support an optional column called *Role* in admins.csv. Learn more.

Teacher backup codes

Teachers can help students who are having difficulty logging in by generating a one-time backup code directly from the teacher Portal. Learn how.

Self-service custom mappings

Districts can now create, update, and view common field mappings in the Districts dashboard!
