The Name of the school is visible to users when generating bubble sheets, assigning online tests and running reports on the LinkIt! portal. The Name and Code are also used when uploading staff roster, student roster and third-party assessment data via LinkIt!'s batch upload utilities (StateCode is often used when uploading state assessment data). As such, we recommend that you adopt the most commonly used naming and coding convention in the district when creating or editing a school.
