⚠️ Please note: Schoology Courses are automatically created and rostered for teachers via PowerSchool. Students do not need to use access codes to join courses during the school year. These directions only apply to teachers who create their own separate course(s) for summer school, extra curricular activities, sports, collaborative purposes, etc.

Please note the following for each section:
Course Name: Type in your own course name. Do not select any of the suggested course names that appear as an option for you.
(If you select one of the suggested course names, you will instead
create a section for someone's existing course with that title.)
Section Name: You can leave it as "Section 1" or label it something relevant to your course (ex. the year or time frame). The Section Name will be displayed next to the main Course Name.
Subject Area: Choose the closest relevant subject area label. Sadly, not all subject areas are listed as an option.
Level: Select a grade or grade range.
Grading Periods: Scroll down to the bottom of this section to find the most recent grading period options. Please note the time frame listed next to each grading period listed. This course will archive on the listed end date. Teachers (not students) can access any archived course.
Teachers can share their course Access Code to have students or other members join their manually created course.
Teachers can customize their Schoology Course Images to ease student access. This is a helpful visual cue to assist students with course navigation.
