Overview:
ESGI makes adding students to your classroom super simple. This article provides step by step instructions on how to add students to your classroom in ESGI.
Students that have been assessed in ESGI by another teacher or in a Pre-Assess Account should be added to a class using Student Manager. Manually adding a student that exists in Student Manager will create a duplicate.
New students can be added using our Student Upload Tool or can be added manually on the Home Screen by clicking the + button at the top of the All Classes Dropdown located on the left of the screen.
Please Note: If the + and Student Manager buttons are missing, your district is importing student information, and students can only be added via the import files. If you think this is an error, please email support@esgisoftware.com and we will assist.

Adding Students:
Please follow these steps to add a student in your ESGI Teacher Account:
1. Log into your ESGI Teacher Account and click on the + button located at the top of the All Classes Dropdown located on the left of the screen (see Image 1), then click Add a Student.
Please Note: To Add Students via File, you must first select a class before clicking on the + button.
2. Enter the student's information on the Student Profile pop out menu (see Image 2), then click Save.
3. If the student already exists in ESGI, you will receive a popup message with two options:
- Cancel exits out of the Student Profile pop out.
- Create Duplicate Student creates another duplicate record for that student which will not have any previous test data that may have been collected.
4. Select the Location tab after the Profile tab to assign the student to a class and/or group.
5. Lastly, click on the Information tab to the right of the Location tab to enter the following optional details for the student:
- Student picture
- Race and Ethnicity
- Lunch Status
- Special Programs
- Comments
6. Click on the Save button at the top right of the Student Profile pop out when you are done.
7. Your new student is now added to your classroom and will appear under your class roster.
