Managing Accounts

Creating and Modifying District Admins

Before each yearly reporting release, district admin accounts are automatically updated based on data from the OEDS. If changes are made in the OEDS after the data has been provided to EVAAS, those changes are not reflected in the EVAAS account updates. The EVAAS state admin needs to make those changes manually.

Creating an Account

To create a district admin account, click the Admin link at the top right of any EVAAS page. The list of district admins is displayed. By default, all districts appear in the list whether they have an admin account holder or not. Use the menu above the list to view a list of districts that don't have a designated school admin user or a list of deactivated district admin accounts.

Districts With an Existing admin account holder: Before you can create a new district admin account, you must deactivate the current district admin account. To do so, click the name of the district. In the District Options box, click Deactivate admin account and follow the instructions. For more information, see Deactivating Accounts.

When you are finished deactivating the account, no admin account holder will be displayed for the district in the list of district admins.

Districts Without an admin account holder: Click the name of the district. In the District Options box, click Add an admin and follow the instructions.

Entering Basic Information

Educator State ID: The Educator State ID must be entered for users to be granted access to teacher reports. If the Educator State ID is not entered, you cannot include teacher reports in the account's permissions. If the user does not need access to teacher reports, you can leave the Educator State ID blank.

District Teacher Summary: This option grants access to the individual teacher reports for all teachers in the district. To include this option in the account's permissions, you must enter the user's correct Educator State ID.

Confirming Selections

Use the confirmation page to verify the selections you made.

Send email to user: This box is checked by default. If you leave it checked, the user will receive an email with a description of their account permissions and their account credentials when you finish creating or modifying the account.

Modifying Access

To modify a district admin account, navigate to the list of district admins, click on the user's name, and follow the instructions on each page. For more information, refer to the steps above for creating an account, beginning with the Basic Information page.
