The Mass Class Assignment tool is an alternative to the automated placement of students via the eSD® Scheduler. The Mass Class Assignment tool can also be used in combination with the Scheduler, if desired. Like the Scheduler, the Mass Class Assignment tool will allow students to be placed in multiple classes associated to the same Minute Block period, since Minute Blocks do not have defined Start/End Times. The Mass Class Assignment tool can also be used for Pre-School and/or Pre-K students, if the district runs these programs.
