How can I edit student information? – Scholastic Digital Manager

Scholastic Digital Manager allows you to edit your student's information; however, the instructions depend on your school's rostering method.

Choose your rostering method below for detailed instructions. What is my rostering method?

Manually on SDM

At any time, you can edit information for students in classes where you are the primary teacher.

Access your class from the Classes tab and select a student’s name from your class list to edit the following:

First Name
Last Name

Grade Level
Password

Student ID
Easy Login credentials

Warning! Please note that student settings like grade level, name, and other information are global across SDM. If you update these settings for a student in your class, the change will be reflected in other classes too.

Clever

Changes made to district information within your Clever account will update and sync with Scholastic Digital Manager during a nightly automated sync process. This includes:

New classes.
Changes to existing classes.
Student information such as first and last name and grade level.
New students added to classes or existing students removed from classes.

Google Classroom

Changes to your class roster, such as adding new classes, adding and removing students, or making spelling corrections, must be done in Google Classroom and resynced with SDM.
