Today's events automatically appear on the Dashboard under "Today's Events" so nothing is missed.

Filter events by type using the color-coded legend. Search events by keyword to quickly find specific entries.

Tips & Best Practices

  • Add exam dates at the beginning of each term so teachers and parents can plan ahead.
  • Use the "Meeting" type for parent-teacher conferences and board meetings.
  • Color-coding makes it easy to distinguish between exams, trips, and general events.
