In the MyKidReports School Calendar, administrators can add and manage a variety of event types to keep staff and parents updated. These include:

New Events – Create custom events like staff meetings, parent-teacher conferences, or school functions.

In addition, administrators can also view important dates, including:

  • Physical Expiry – Track upcoming student physical exam expiration dates.

  • Training Expiry – Monitor staff training or certification expiration dates.

  • US Holidays – Automatically visible in the calendar to help align school schedules with official holidays.

Step 5: Fill in the New Event Details – Enter the Event Name (required), add an Event Description (optional), choose the Date, and select whether it’s an All Day Event or a specific time. You can also use Change Invitees to add staff or parents, or a room, and enable Repeat Event if the event should recur. Finally, click Create Event to save.
