Add Students via Roster Upload Tool
21 Aug 2024

Use MyKidReports' Roster Upload Tool to bulk upload new student profiles, information & contacts seamlessly!

Using the Roster Upload Tool in MyKidReports is the quickest way to add student profiles, their personal information, and any additional student contacts from your previous platform. MyKidReports Premium customers benefit from unlimited roster uploads, with completion typically within the same day, and always within 24 hours!

Important Information

We understand that you might not have all the information when creating a student profile, so we've kept the requirements minimal. For roster import, only the First Name, Last Name, date of birth, and at least one parent's contact information are needed. This ensures that actions and activities can be logged immediately after import.

Note: Acceptable fields

Child_first_name, child_last_name, child_date_of_birth, child_start_date, child_gender program_name, room_name, parents_1_mail, parents_1_first_name, parents_1_last_name, parents_1_phone, parents_2_mail, parents_2_first_name, parents_2_last_name, parents_2_phone

As long as the roster has at least 10 students, includes the required information mentioned above, and is in an accepted format (CSV, XLSX, PDF, or DOC), our team will handle the import for you. CSV or XLSX formats are preferred as they help prevent conversion errors.

Please note that after the import, our team does not send invites to student contacts. You can easily invite them by following the steps outlined [here].

Export Your Roster from a Third-Party System

Switching to MyKidReports from another platform? We’re here to make the transition as smooth as possible! Check out our [Roster Exports from Other Systems] resource to see if your current provider is listed, and follow the instructions to export your roster. Then, return to this guide to proceed with the import!

💡 If your current platform allows filtering based on student status, we recommend exporting only active students to avoid confusion and ensure that only currently enrolled students are imported into MyKidReports

Steps to upload your roster

Once your roster meets the above guidelines, it’s ready to be uploaded! Make sure you are logged in to the appropriate school account, then follow these steps:

  1. Log in to the school’s account on the web.
  2. Expand the My School tab and select Students.
