Can a user have access to more than one school if there are multiple schools using Flex in a district?
A user can have access to more than one school if there are multiple schools using Flex in the district. The user will need to be included as an active user in each system. If your district uses a 3rd party API to provision users, both Clever and ClassLink allow for users to be easily shared across multiple schools. Please refer to the “User Management” section in the Flex Admin Guide for more information about adding users via Clever, ClassLink, GG4L, user files, and individually.
Once added to Flex, users can select their default school in their Profile settings. All users have access to their “My Profile” screen in Flex. For adults, this is found on the bottom left portion of the menu in Flex by clicking the up-arrow next to the user’s name.
Here you can view summary information about your activities and “Edit” your personal information. When the “Edit” button is selected, the following window appears where you can update the last three fields, including the “Default School”. (Only users who have been set up in multiple Flex schools within a district will see more than one school in the “Default School” drop-down.)
To access another school that they are associated with, users simply select that school from the dropdown menu located on the upper left-hand side of the screen above the menu.
For students, the “My Profile” option is located in the top right corner of their Flex screen. If they have access to multiple schools, they can switch between them using the drop-down menu on the left.
