device.

What if my student is not registered in LanSchool Air?
Student devices are added to the Registered List after the LanSchool Air agent has been installed on their device. For Chromebook students, this means they will need to login to their device before being registered for the first time. For more information on installing the agent on student devices see these articles for
Chromebook,
Windows, and
Mac.
Why do student names sometimes change after adding them to my class?
When creating custom classes, Windows and Mac student devices are added to the roster as devices. This means that the student name associated with the device will change when a new student logs in. To create a class roster in LanSchool Air that follows the user instead of the device, the roster must be imported them from
Clever or
OneRoster CSV.
