Enroll a child and edit their profile

Available on Run and Grow

Add a child, fill in their details, and understand enrollment status and what the profile shows.

A child's profile is the home for their details, contacts, health records and day-by-day history. Directors add children and edit their details. Teachers can read profiles and the daily history.

Add a child

  • On the web, select Add a child on the All students page, or open a classroom and select Add student, which fills in that room for you.
  • In the app, select Add student on the All students screen, or use Add to this room and then New student in this room.
  1. Enter First name and Last name. They're the only required fields.
  2. Pick a Room if you want to place the child now. It's optional, and you can do it later; see Place or move a child between rooms.
  3. Select Add more details for anything else, then select Add and the child's first name (it reads Add child until you type one). In the app the button is Add student.

A new child is enrolled as Active. The enrollment status field only appears when you edit.

Edit a child's details

On the child's profile, select Edit and then Save changes. The page is titled Edit student.

  • Personal: Middle name, Nickname, Date of birth (not in the future) and Gender (Male or Female; select the same one again to clear it).
  • Address: Street address, Apt / Suite, State and Zip code.
  • Health & Safety holds medications and allergies. See Add contacts, caregivers and allergies.

The Edit button also appears for teachers on the web, but only a director's save goes through.

Enrollment status

Every child carries a status, shown as a tag on the profile:

StatusWhat it means
ActiveCurrently enrolled.
WithdrawnThe family left. Set when you withdraw a child.
DisenrolledNo longer enrolled for another reason.
GraduatedAged out or moved on to the next program.

In the edit form you can switch a child between Active and Graduated. You can't set Withdrawn or Disenrolled by hand: the form says "Ending enrollment runs through Withdraw so the reason and exit details are captured." See Withdraw a child. In the app the status is read-only, and Withdraw student sits right below it.

Status is different from today's attendance (checked in, checked out, absent). Attendance says whether a child is here right now; see Manage daily attendance.

What the profile shows

On the web, the profile header has the child's name and room, today's attendance tag, and the buttons Daily report, Photos, Attendance history, Edit and Withdraw. Below are the Parents and Caregivers cards, the behavior rating and a Daily History timeline. The Medications and Immunizations cards appear once medical records are on for your school.

In the app the profile has Information, Parents, Contacts & Pickup, Skills observed and an Activity timeline, with rows for Today's report, Attendance history, Photo gallery, Incidents, Report incident, Report absence and Change classroom, plus Medications and Immunizations once medical records are on for your school. The app's Activity timeline is the fuller record: it also shows incidents, enrollment-status changes and profile edits. The web's Daily History covers events and attendance only.
