Charts are created, edited, and deleted at the district level and are visible to all educators with permission to view student data across the district, at both district and high school levels. District Account Managers can create custom charts to display on educators' homepages. To build a chart, you'll first need to create a custom report and set it as a student list


From the dashboard, find the name of the report for which you want to create a chart. You can find your custom student lists in the Custom Lists section of the left column. Click on the carrot next to the report for which you want to create a chart and click on the Dashboard section. 

Click on the + in the grey box to create a new chart


Select the field for which you want to create a chart by clicking the pencil icon next to the field name


Add categories by clicking on the + ADD A CATEGORY option under the Display Categories section. 


If you selected a numeric field, you'll enter minimum and maximum values for the display categories just like in the data summary builder. If you selected a text field, you'll be able to choose text options for the values for each display category. 



Once you've created all of your categories, click Save



To view the category information, hover over the i icon in the top right corner of the chart card



To edit the chart, click on the pencil icon in the bottom right corner of the chart card 

To remove a chart, edit the chart and remove each of the display categories by click on the red X on the right side of the display row
