Skip to main content
The student home page is a full-page view (not a side panel) that gives teachers and administrators a convenient 360° picture of one learner. You can review notes and goals, scheduled reading assessments, checkpoints, mini trend snapshots, and longer Reading progress and Language progress charts without leaving the student’s context.
Demo data notice
Any names, student records, IDs, and examples shown in this documentation section are fictitious sample data for demonstration and training purposes only. Any resemblance to real persons, schools, or records is purely coincidental.

How to open the student home page

  1. Go to StudentsView Students.
  2. Click the student’s name in the roster.
Admins can always open the page from the name. Teachers can open it only when Assessments access is enabled for their account; otherwise names stay plain text on the roster. See Students: Admin vs Teacher. Use Close (top right) to return to the roster. Your place in the student list is preserved.

Header and context selectors

At the top of the page you will see:
  • Student name, grade, and the current reading tier badge (when a tier applies for the selected year and language)
  • Student ID and External ID (when present), with Copy IDs for both values
  • School year and Language dropdowns. The page loads assessments and charts for that combination
  • Edit student (admins only): update legal name fields and external ID
Choose the school year and language before the main content appears. If either is missing, the page prompts you to select them.

Tabs on the student home page

Three tabs sit below the header:
TabWhat it shows
SummaryNotes, goals (admins), accuracy/fluency snapshots, scheduled BOY/MOY/EOY assessments, and checkpoints
Reading progressFull reading trend charts and assessment snapshot (same family of charts as Student progress charts)
Language progressACTFL-by-skill and comprehension charts for the student
Switching tabs updates the URL so you can bookmark or share a link to a specific tab.

Summary tab

Show Reading Only

On Summary, Show Reading Only (switch) simplifies assessment cards to reading fluency and accuracy. Listening, speaking, and writing domains are hidden on those cards. This preference applies on the student home page only. It does not change the main Students roster toggle.

Top row

  • Goals (admins only), one active goal with body text and date; + Add goal or edit when empty. Teachers do not see this column.
  • Notes: free-text note and optional link for the enrollment year (stored as the student’s accommodation/note record). Admins add or edit; teachers see the text when present but cannot change it.
  • Accuracy and Fluency: compact trend snapshots for the selected year and language.

Assessments (scheduled)

Three columns: Beginning of Year, Middle of Year, and End of Year, show scheduled reading assessments. Each card displays scores, tier, comprehension, and language domains (unless Show Reading Only is on). Use Add or open a card to create or edit an assessment when you have permission.

Checkpoints

Below scheduled assessments, Checkpoints lists additional reading assessments in a horizontal strip you can scroll. Admins (and teachers with assessment access) can + Add checkpoints, edit cards, and drag the handle on a column to reorder. Order is saved per student, school year, and language. Teachers without assessment access see checkpoints read-only and cannot reorder. Default order follows assessment dates; undated checkpoints fall back to creation order until you rearrange them.

Reading progress and Language progress tabs

These tabs embed the student trend report for that learner:
  • Performance trend (current year, last three years, or all time) and Year when needed
  • Chart cards with benchmarks (reading) or ACTFL / comprehension views (language)
  • Copy Charts where available (same behavior as on the standalone progress report)
For chart-specific tips and troubleshooting. See Student progress charts.

How to add or edit data

  1. Confirm School year and Language.
  2. On Summary, use period cards under Assessments for BOY/MOY/EOY, or + Add under Checkpoints.
  3. Use + Add note / edit on Notes (admins) or + Add goal / edit on Goals (admins).
  4. Modals for assessments, checkpoints, goals, and notes follow the same patterns as elsewhere in hFlow; unsaved changes show discard prompts if you close mid-edit.
You can also add or edit scheduled assessments from the Assessments gradebook; see Assessments.

Admin vs teacher

Administrators can edit the student record, goals, notes, assessments, and checkpoint order (subject to your workflow).Teachers with Assessments access can edit assessments and checkpoints and reorder checkpoints. Without that access, they may still open the student home page when allowed, but assessment actions are read-only and checkpoint order is locked. Teachers always see notes read-only and do not manage goals.
