To Edit a School Year:
- From the Planbook Bar, select School Years.
- Hover over the year you would like to edit.
- Click Edit.
- Edit any one of the following fields:
School Year Name - This is the name of your year that appears in the school year dropdown, typically the calendar year dates like "2026-2027."
School Year Dates - These reflect the first and last calendar dates of your school year.
Lesson Layout - This is the default Lesson Layout for your school year, which will then be applied to all classes in the year that do not have a specific Lesson Layout applied.
Schedule Type - This is the basis on which your classes will be scheduled. Planbook features three schedule types: Weekly, Biweekly, and Cycle.
Cycle Resets - This tool only appears for Cycle Schedules. This will allow you to reset your cycle to correct cycle day dates and align your school calendar.
Display Days - These are the week days that appear on your plans page. Most schools use Monday-Friday, but you can customize this to include any days you need.
Grading Periods - These are the grading periods outlined in your school year for performance reports.
Grading Scale - This is the scale used for letter grades in Planbook's Grading feature.
School Days - These are the week days where school is in session. Your classes will appear on these days.
School Times - These are the start and end times of your school day. This will impact the times of day where you are able to schedule classes. - Click the checkmark in the top right corner to Save your changes.
