How many tasks make up your start-of-the-year to-dos? There’s so much that it might be hard to visualize. Luckily, our educators turned trainers know your back-to-school list like the back of their hands and have put together the top moves to make in jmc for a smooth return.


Stay steps ahead of the back-to-school rush with our handy checklist, where you can easily track and complete to-dos per module in jmc Office, like setting your calendar and entering new teachers into your jmc database. The best part: It’ll help you divvy out tasks to individual team members, spreading the workload across your district. Before you chip away at those items, read this article to get familiar with the checklist.

"Use Right-Click or Control-Click to easily toggle between the checklist and modules, so that you don’t lose your place — or page."

-Paul Freid, Head of Sales


Rolling on over to enrollment, we have a training video to walk you through when to add, drop, or re-enter students into the school system, ensuring correct student tallies and adequate state funding. Consider it your compass for navigating common scenarios like ‘returning fifth-year senior’ and ‘completed the prior year but left school in the summer.’ Bookmark our ‘Tackling Enrollment Procedures’ webinar playback today.

"If you accidentally delete a student, use the New Student Wizard to re-enter them into the system without duplicating their profile."

-Greg Gilman, State Reporting Guru and Development Lead


Data submissions can be a doozy. Lean on our state reporting experts to ensure that yours go off without a hitch, starting with a YouTube playlist that breaks down the latest data requirements, so you don’t miss a beat — or deadline. From setting your data up for success to working through errors, the playlist covers all you need to nail state reporting. Explore the playlist for: IA Reporting, MN Reporting, NE Reporting, and WI Reporting.

"For easy access, save the playlist in YouTube by clicking the three vertical dots above the video list and then ‘Save playlist to Library’."

-Rachel Cox, Resources Lead


We’re here to ease the process of onboarding new users in jmc Office and jmc Teacher with six-plus training options to meet every team member’s preferred learning style. Catch this video to learn about them all, including our comprehensive New User Series on YouTube, in-app support chat, a treasure trove of how-to articles, and more.

"For best results, we encourage new users to schedule a Q&A session with a jmc trainer via Google Meet to knock out any questions."

-Jodi Schott, New School Lead
