Review Teacher Users

This is usually the shortest step of the school year rollover. Most districts will find nothing to do here.

Why there is so little to review

Teacher accounts are governed by your nightly SIS sync and are reconciled when you submit this rollover. Teachers who have left, teachers who have arrived, and teachers who have changed schools are all handled for you, so there is nothing to revoke on this step.

For where teacher accounts come from in the first place, see Teacher Users.

The one thing the sync never touches

A teacher account can be granted access to more than one teacher's data. The SIS sync never reconciles those extra grants, so they are the one thing that goes stale.

If any teacher account has extra grants, the step lists them with a picker holding that account's current grants. Remove a teacher, add one, or swap one for another, then update. The account's own teacher is always kept and cannot be removed here, because the sync re-establishes it every night regardless.

The picker offers every teacher in your district, each with their school, and a teacher who has left is marked (inactive). Those are usually the grants worth removing, since they point at someone no longer teaching in your district. See Inactive Teachers.

An account that has no extra grants at all is not listed here. To give someone their first additional teacher, use their user edit page: see Custom User Settings.

If no teacher account has extra grants, the step says so and there is nothing to do. Continue.
