What’s important to know?

What’s changed?

See here for common changes that you might encounter.  Some changes particularly relevant to this document are described below.

• Staff accounts for JumpRope now only have one active email address.  This address is used as a staff member’s login username and their current contact address.  There is no longer a need for a preferred email address or multiple usernames. In the event of a change in email address simply edit the staff user’s Email field.
• Connected accounts (one teacher, more than one school) can now be managed locally without direct support from JumpRope.  Create a staff account once and then select the schools/sites that they should have access to along with the level of access they should have.
• By default the list view of staff accounts includes all schools and all active accounts.  Filter the view by active status or by school site.
