Admin Options

TeacherPortal Admin > Admin > Admin Options

This page is only available to users who log on to TeacherPortal with a district- or campus-level security administrator user ID.


This page allows you to select the teacher for whom you want to log in with administrator privileges. After you select a teacher from this page, you can access TeacherPortal as if you were that teacher; however, there are some differences:

  • The Admin menu is displayed in the main menu. Click Admin to return to this page to select another teacher.

  • In the Settings menu, the Update Admin Profile menu item appears instead of Update Profile.

There are multiple levels of administrator access:

  • Administrator with full access - You can perform all functions, including saving, posting, and printing.

  • Inquiry-only access - You can view all pages, but all buttons (except Print buttons) are disabled. Even if you change data in a field, you cannot save changes, so all changes will be lost when you leave the page. Inquiry-only users can print data.

Any changes you make while you are logged in as an administrator are logged with the administrator user ID. This allows you to distinguish between changes actually made by the teacher and changes made by an administrative user.

Select a teacher:

❏ Log in using your administrative user ID and password.

The Admin Options page opens instead of the Announcements page.

If you are a discipline-only user for a campus, the campus is only listed in the drop down allowed by the district.

Select Teacher

The list is filtered according to the selected campus and includes all teachers at the campus who currently have a user ID for TeacherPortal.

The list is sorted alphabetically by the teacher's last name and includes the instructor ID.

If a teacher teaches at more than one campus, the teacher's name is displayed for each campus.


Once you select a campus and teacher, the campus name, teacher name, and instructor ID are displayed in the left-side navigation bar.
