Creating and assigning student tags individually

Student tags help you mark important information about students, such as accommodations, special needs, medical alerts, or interests. You can create your own tags, then assign them to individual students from the Students tab.

Step 1: Open Student Tags

Go to the Room tab, then choose Tags.

This is where you create the tags you want to use in ClassSeats. Tags are custom, so you can make them match the kinds of information you want to remember.

ClassSeats navigation with the Room tab highlighted — Open the Room tab.

In Room, use the tab row to open Tags.

Room page tab row with Tags highlighted — Choose Tags from the Room page.

Step 2: Create a tag

In the Student Tags section, enter a Tag Name. You can also choose an emoji and color to make the tag easier to recognize at a glance.

When the tag looks right, click + Create Tag.

Student Tags form with tag name, emoji, color, and Create Tag button highlighted — Add a tag name, choose an optional emoji and color, then click Create Tag.

Step 3: Review your tag list

After you create a tag, it appears in your tag list. From here, you can create more tags, edit an existing tag, or delete a tag you no longer need.

Step 4: Assign a tag to a student

Go to the Students tab. On each student card, find the Tags area and click + Add Tag.

Students tab with Add Tag highlighted on a student card — Use the Add Tag menu on a student card to assign a tag to that student.

Select the tag you want to assign from the menu.

Add Tag menu with IEP and ELL tag options — Choose one of your existing tags from the Add Tag menu.

The tag appears on the student’s card. You can assign more tags the same way, or click the x on a tag to remove it from that student.
