Welcome to our guide on using filters in the Manage > Students section! Filters are a powerful tool that helps administrators efficiently find, manage, communicate with, and export information for specific student groups. In this article, we’ll explore why filters matter, how to apply them, and some best practices to make the most of this feature.

Using filters is essential for several reasons:

• Work efficiently with large student lists

• Target communication accurately

• Generate precise reports and exports

• Reduce manual searching

To apply filters, follow these simple steps:

1. Go to Manage > Students.

2. Select a school or school level.

3. Use one or more filter categories to narrow your results.

Remember, filters remain active when sending emails or running exports, making it easier to manage your tasks.

The available filters may vary based on Student Mode and permissions. Here are some common filter types you can use:

• Compliance status

• Form completion

• Payment status

• Physical or concussion status

• Custom clearances

• Enrollment status

• Medical conditions

• Countdowns

• Groups, sports, or activities

You can also filter by:

• Student name, ID, or email

• Sex

• Grade or graduating class

• Sport or activity (mode-specific)

Keep these important notes in mind when using filters:

• Filters can be combined across categories.

• Only one option per filter category can be selected (with limited exceptions).

• Always confirm the active mode before filtering.

To maximize the effectiveness of filters, consider these best practices:

• Apply filters before sending mass emails or exporting data.

• Clear filters when switching tasks.

• Use filters to identify issues before they become problems.
