All administrative accounts have access to these school settings. Most settings only have to be set once, but we recommend that you review all settings from year to year. The best time to check your settings is approximately 1 week before the start of a school year.
Log into your account, and click the School Settings button located in the right column of your portal homepage.
Of the four sections found on the School Settings page, only the Terms and Access Registration Managment sections are essential to ensuring that your School Loop site is properly configured.
Settings History records the username, date, time and action for all changes to the school wide settings. Ad Campaign is an optional feature that allows you to start a donation campaign by inserting a donation banner in the daily email that goes out to parents. It is the responsibility of the school or district to set up such an online campaign. School Loop merely allows you to enter the URL for the donation campaign set up by the school.
