Partners who choose manual rostering during the onboarding process or are ineligible candidates for full roster integration must complete and submit the Admin and Teacher Roster Template. Summit K12 Support will use submitted data to manually create teachers' accounts and classes.

Filling out the Roster Template
To begin, download the Summit K12 Admin and Teacher Roster Template.
The template has three different sheets. The third sheet labeled “Your Roster” has six required fields and one optional field to fill out.
Field Header | Description | Required |
School Name | School name where the admin and/or teacher is assigned. If a district admin, type the name of the district in this space. | Yes |
District-Assigned Email |
School email address of admin/teacher.
The email provided should match the email used to SSO (if applicable). |
Yes |
First Name | Admin and/or teacher's first name | Yes |
Last Name | Admin and/or teacher's last name | Yes |
Grade |
Pick a grade from the dropdown menu.
If a teacher has multiple classes with multiple grade levels, please make a separate line for each grade level assigned. For example, if a teacher needs a Summit K12 class created for 4th and 5th grade Science you should include their name and information on two lines of the roster template.
A grade level is not required for District and School Admins. |
Yes |
Summit K12 Role |
Pick a role from the dropdown menu. District Admin vs. School Admin vs. Lead Teacher vs. Support Teacher |
Yes |
Subject | If your school or district has purchased more than one Summit K12 product and needs to distinguish which product(s) each teacher will receive, use the Subject column in Column G. | No |
Submitting the Roster Template
Once you have completed the Summit K12 Admin and Teacher Roster, attach it to the Welcome Email sent by Summit K12 Support, submit a new request with the file attached, or use an SFTP export based on your district's privacy-sharing requirements. Summit K12 Support will handle the upload*.
Summit K12 Support will validate the data and import it in bulk to create accounts and classes. We will verify with you that users were set up successfully in a confirmation email and provide any necessary login credentials.
*Attaching the roster in .XLSX or .CSV format will ensure quicker processing of your submitted data.
Adding Additional Accounts After Submitting Rosters
To add admins or teachers, visit Adding Additional Teachers/Admins to Summit K12.
To add students, visit Adding Additional Students to Summit K12.
Districts may grant admins and teachers the ability to add additional accounts directly within the LMS:
To add Support Teachers, visit Creating Support Teacher Accounts using the Create New User Tool.
To add students, visit Creating Student Accounts using the Create New User Tool.
Manual Rostering with Single Sign-On (SSO)
Users can log in via Single Sign-On (SSO) through one of the available LTI/LMS integrations or with ClassLink, Clever, or RapidIdentity if the district utilizes them.
District-issued emails provided to Summit K12 and the emails used to log in to the selected SSO solution must be identical. If they fail to match, users will not be able to access Summit K12 through the Single Sign-on (SSO) until the necessary corrections are made.
Otherwise, users can log in manually at the URL: lms.summitk12.com with the credentials provided by Summit K12 Support.
