School Loop Plus includes a wide variety of special tools and feature for teachers.
Menu Bar
Important teacher tools are gathered together in a convenient pull-down menu near the top of the screen.

This area of the portal displays all your courses for the current school year. When courses are not active (i.e. no students are currently enrolled), they are not visible on the portal. You can access all previous courses and move active sections to old courses via Manage Sections in the Quick Links (see below).
The portal also contains a list of Student Trackers which are customizable groups of students that allow administrators and teacher to focus on their needs. You are automatically given a course tracker for each course you teach. For more information about Student Trackers, click here.
