Managing District Details

Click a District’s name (or its View link) to open the District’s own page. Across the top are tabs for Schools, Programs, Job Posts, Groups, Students, Schedule, Details, Clever, and Finance - all but Details are District-wide rollups of the same information you’d find on one of its individual Schools. Details is where you manage the District itself.

A District Details page, with a District Details panel, a District Contacts panel, and a District Faculty panel

What’s on This Screen

  • Schools, Programs, Job Posts, Groups, Students, Schedule, Details, Clever, and Finance tabs, across the top.
  • Exceeds maximum instructors warning, appears when the District has more active Instructors than its Number of Instructor Seats allows.
  • District Details panel, with an Edit link - see below.
  • District Contacts panel, with a search bar, a table of Name and Job Title, and a New Contact button.
  • District Faculty panel, with a search bar, a table of Name, Job Title, Email, Role(s), and Phone Number, a New District Faculty button, and an options menu.

Click Edit on District Details to change any of the District’s own settings.

The Edit District Details modal, with fields for District Name, Address, Time Zone, Default Instruction Type, MCP Access, and Number of Instructor Seats

What’s on This Screen

  • District Name, Address, and Time Zone, the same fields set at creation.
  • Default Instruction Type, Braintrust Tutors or Spark.
  • MCP Access, a checkbox enabling AI assistant access for the District’s Faculty.
  • Number of Instructor Seats, related to Spark - a soft cap on how many Instructor seats the District is licensed for. Lowering it below the number of currently active Instructors shows a warning, but doesn’t deactivate anyone or block the save.
  • Cancel and Save buttons, to back out or confirm.

District Contacts are separate from District Faculty - a Contact is someone from the school who doesn’t have a platform account, but whose information is still worth having on hand as a point of contact. Click New Contact to add one.

The Create New District Contact modal, with fields for Name, Job Title, Email, Phone Number, Address, Time Zone, and Internal Notes

What’s on This Screen

  • Name, required.
  • Job Title, Email, and Phone Number, optional.
  • Address and Time Zone, optional.
  • Internal Notes, a private rich-text field - the modal notes it “is not visible to the school faculty.”
  • Cancel and Create buttons, to back out or confirm.

District Faculty works the same way as School Faculty for editing an account and the Lock/Archive/Send Reset Password Email actions, but its Faculty Roles are different. A District Faculty account created from here gets assigned to one or more Schools right at creation, same as one created from a School’s own Details tab.

The Create New District Faculty modal, with the Roles dropdown open showing District Coordinator, Instructor, and MCP User

What’s on This Screen

  • Schools, required - which School(s) this District Faculty covers.
  • District Coordinator, a point of contact from the School District’s side, overseeing every School in the District.
  • Instructor, a Spark-specific role, not a Tutor. Instructors work in person at the school providing additional instruction, using Braintrust’s curriculum, and manage their own schedules and meetings - CSMs don’t manage them directly, Spark Support does.
  • MCP User, only appears once MCP Access is enabled on the District, same as for School Faculty.
