Some campuses may follow special schedules on certain days throughout the year. If these occur regularly (e.g., half-days), it may be helpful to create a specialized schedule that displays alongside the Default schedule in the Weekly and Daily Views.
Follow the instructions below to create a specialized schedule.
Instructional leaders and coaches must select the campus and classroom from the Home page before clicking Monthly View.
Instructional staff can access Monthly View directly from their Home page.
Toggle the Planning Mode switch to the right until it turns dark purple and displays “Planning Mode: On.”
Click the purple “Modify Daily Schedule” button, and then select “Add New Template.”
A schedule template pop-up will appear. Fill in the following fields at the top:
Title: Name the schedule (e.g., Half-day Schedule).
Color: Choose a color to visually represent this schedule.
Start Time: Use the dropdown to set the classroom’s start time for this schedule.
Update the first component listed in the schedule.
Click “+ Add another Component” to continue building out the rest of the schedule in the pop-up window.
If you are adding a component to your schedule:
Scroll to the bottom of the schedule and click “+ Add another Component.”
A new row will appear at the bottom.
Enter the necessary details for the new component, and drag it to the correct time of day.
Component: Select the Every Child Ready Component or leave it blank for a custom block.
Component Duration: Enter the duration (in minutes).
Custom Description: Use this for details about custom components or time blocks.
Use the reorder arrows on the left to drag and rearrange components into the correct order.
If you are removing something from the schedule:
Click the three dots in the top-right corner of the component.
Click the “Remove” button. The removal will happen automatically.
Click “Save” to keep changes, or “Cancel” to discard them.
Click the button for your newly created schedule to highlight it.
In the Monthly Grid, navigate to the desired month and click on the specific days that will use this specialized schedule.
Click the “Save” button for that month before proceeding to the other months to which you want to add that specialized calendar.
Confirm the updates by reviewing changes in Daily View or Weekly View.
