Add students individually with pronouns support and learn about deactivating vs deleting students.
Adding Students
Each student in your class needs a profile before you can generate their report comments.
Adding a Student
1. Open Your Class
Navigate to Classes and click on the class where you want to add students.
2. Click "Add Student"
Enter the student's details:
- First name – Required
- Last name – Optional but recommended
- Pronouns – Choose from he/him, she/her, or they/them
3. Why Pronouns Matter
ReportRocket uses pronouns to generate grammatically correct comments. For example:
- He/him: "James has demonstrated strong understanding. He consistently..."
- She/her: "Emma has demonstrated strong understanding. She consistently..."
- They/them: "Alex has demonstrated strong understanding. They consistently..."
Tip: If unsure, "they/them" works as a neutral option that reads naturally.

Deactivating vs Deleting
- Deactivate – Hides the student but keeps their data. Use when a student leaves mid-term but you need records.
- Delete – Permanently removes the student and all their reports. Cannot be undone.

Students carry over between semesters. When you switch semesters:
- Student profiles remain
