Creating a Family

1. Navigate to People → Families.
2. Click + Add New Family.
3. Name the family and select the associated students and guardians.

You can also create a new family from:

1. The New Student modal when creating a student.
2. The Family dropdown in a student profile.
3. Directly from an Enrollment application.

Family Information

Custom Attributes

You can also add custom fields, called Custom Attributes, to store family- or school-specific information.

To add a Custom Attribute:

1. Open the Family and go to the Other Attributes tab.
2. Click + Add Attribute.
3. Create a new attribute by entering a name and selecting a type, or choose an existing attribute from the list.
4. Once the attribute is created or selected, enter the value (the family’s specific information).

Printing or Saving Family Information

Print guardian details by going to Admin → People → Families and clicking Print. Choose the families and specific data you want, preview, and print.

To save family information as a PDF, follow the same steps as printing but select Save as PDF from the print modal’s destination drop-down before saving the document.
