Top 5 Updates in 2016-2017...
#5 Technical Advisory - We
have developed a Technical Advisory procedure for contacting
our schools if we are unable to contact them through FastDirect.
Please review the email address list found in Settings and make
any necessary changes. We
will contact our schools through email if there is a problem with our
domain FASTDIR.COM or with the phone system at our offices. Read more..
#4 'Remove' Button for Empty Courses
- If you are assigning courses in Show Who Teaches What and need to
remove any unwanted courses, administrators can now remove those empty
courses! No more need to contact HelpDesk! Read more..
#3 Parent Attendance Report - For
parents, viewing a student's attendance has never been easier!
Along with the other viewable reports (grade book, report cards,
missing assignments), you can now allow parents to view their child's
attendance calendar! Read more..
#2 Updated Planner and Assignments Calendar - Upgrades
to Planner mean better communications with your school families!
FastDirect Communications bulletin boards and calendars in Planner are
now mobile friendly, ideal for families on the go. Additionally, Assignment
Calendars have never looked so good! We've made some improvements to
the Assignments Calendar which will further help strengthen the
communication between school and home. Read more..
#1 Attendance and Report Cards for Transfers - For
students that have transferred out of the current school year,

Checklists for the new school year...
The
start of school can be a crazy time but HelpDesk is here to make it
easier. With the start of school quickly approaching,
FastDirect wants to make sure your school is ready. In
addition to completing the Summer Transition steps, there are several
other items to be addressed. To stay on top of the many features
and settings that need to be reviewed for the start of school, we have
created a checklist for administrators, as well as separate ones for
teachers and parents. Click the links below to view the
checklists, as well as our FastDirect Summer Timeline!
HelpDesk
is available to help guide you through these steps - just contact
HelpDesk with an FDmail message or call our toll free number
866.805.3116.
