The Documents page enables administrators to upload, organize, preview, and control document visibility for enrollment forms. This page is designed for district administrators who manage documents that parents/guardians must review or sign during enrollment, including policies, handbooks, required forms, and acknowledgments.

From this page, you can:

  • Upload and manage PDF documents for enrollment forms
  • Organize documents into color-coded groups
  • Preview documents with interactive form testing
  • Add translated versions for multilingual families, including translated document titles

To access this page, navigate to Enrollment Setup > Documents in the left sidebar.

Prerequisites

To access and manage documents, users must have the following:

RoleAccess Level
District AdministratorFull access to upload, edit, and manage all documents

Adding Documents

To add a new document:

  1. Click the Add Document button in the top-right corner to open the upload wizard.
  2. In Step 1: Overview, enter the document details:
    • Title (required) - The document name displayed to users (auto-populated from filename if left blank)
    • Group - Assign to a document group for organization (select "No group" to leave ungrouped)
    • Description - Brief summary of the document's purpose (max 500 characters)
  3. Click Next to proceed to file attachment.
  4. In Step 2: Attach Document, upload your PDF using drag-and-drop or click Browse File to select from your computer.
  5. (Optional) Add translated versions by selecting a language from the dropdown, clicking Upload, and uploading the translated PDF. You can also add a translated title for each language version — see Translating Document Titles below.

Translating Document Titles

When you add a translated PDF for a language, an inline Title in language name (optional) input appears for that language row. Use it to provide a translated version of the document title so parents and guardians see the title in their preferred language.

To save typing, click the AI translate icon next to the input — this auto-populates the field by translating the English title into the selected language. You can edit the result before saving if needed.

Note: Translated titles only affect what parents and guardians see. The Documents list in the Admin Portal continues to display the primary English title for each document. If a parent's preferred language has no translated title, they see the English title as a fallback.

Groups help organize documents into logical categories with visual color-coding. Each group displays the number of non-archived documents it contains in parentheses.
