Lockers (Student)

Tool Search: Lockers

Lockers defines and stores the locker's number, serial number, combinations, type and location. Maintaining student locker information can be done on an individual student basis, or by using a locker wizard to mass assign lockers to all students.

Assigning lockers to students requires set up of locker data first. See the Lockers Admin article for information. Lockers can be assigned to multiple students at once using the Locker Schedule Wizard.

A historical record of a student's locker assignment is recorded in the Lockers tool that lists the student's name and the date range of the locker assignment.

A student can have the same locker assigned throughout his/her career in the school. The locker is assigned to the student until it is unassigned and/or ended. Locker assignments need to be manually ended when the enrollment is ended.
