Create platoons

Platoons are often used as a temporary grouping for students who travel together from one course to another, such as math to science.

To create platoon codes:

  1. Log on to the Build view.
  2. Click the Global tab.
  3. Click the Reference side-tab. The list of reference tables appears.
  4. Select the checkbox next to Platoon Code, and then click Codes on the Reference side-tab.
  5. On the Options menu, click Add.
  6. Define the information for the platoon code.
  7. Click Save.
  8. Repeat steps 5-7 for each platoon you want to create.

Now, you can assign students to specific platoons before you build your master schedule. Then, you assign specific sections to the platoon on the Workspace tab.
