Inputting, Editing and Viewing Homework

As an teacher you have the ability of adding / viewing homework for the students within your sections. Homework is a great way to provide information on an assignment and allow for easy online submissions.

Note: the label "Homework" can be renamed by a school admin. Some common alternative names for Homework are Assignments and Coursework. 

You can set homework to be visible just for guardians or for both students and guardians, however, you cannot set homework to be just for students.

Accessing homework in ClassReach is done by:
