You can update a student's name, grade, group, username, and password at any time from your class roster.
Step 1: Go to My Class
Click My Class in the sidebar to open your class roster.
Step 2: Open the Edit Form
Find the student you want to update. Click the actions menu next to their name and select Edit student.
Step 3: Update Personal Information
The Personal information section contains the following fields:
- First Name — required
- Last Name — required; you may use only the first initial if preferred
- Parent E-mail — optional
- Grade — select from K through 12
- Student group — assign the student to one of your groups, or select None
Step 4: Update Login Credentials
The Access information section shows the student's current login details:
- Username — must be unique across Book Taco. The form checks availability as you type and will alert you if the username is already taken.
- Password — the current password is pre-filled. Type a new password to replace it, or leave the field unchanged to keep the existing one. Minimum 3 characters.
Use the eye icon next to the password field to show or hide the password as you type.
Step 5: Save Your Changes
Click the green Save button at the bottom of the form. Changes take effect the next time the student signs in.
Notes for Clever and ClassLink Teachers
If your account is connected to Clever or ClassLink, some fields are managed by your platform and cannot be edited in Book Taco:
- The Username field is read-only.
- The Grade field is not displayed, as it is synced from your platform.
To update these values, make the change in Clever or ClassLink and allow the sync to apply it to Book Taco.
