Placement process
What is Roster review?
Roster review is the check a school performs before placement generation to confirm student data, constraints, and class setup are ready.
What it means in class placement
Roster review is the unglamorous step that saves the placement meeting. Most class list problems begin before generation: duplicate students, missing support notes, stale friend requests, or classrooms that no longer match staffing reality.
A careful roster review gives the team cleaner inputs and fewer surprises. It also creates a shared moment to ask whether the data still reflects what teachers know now, not what someone entered three months ago.
Examples in a real placement meeting
- 1
A secretary catches a student listed twice after a midyear transfer.
- 2
A teacher updates a friend preference before lists are generated.
- 3
A principal confirms every destination classroom exists and has the right capacity.
How Shibutz uses this idea
Shibutz includes roster review and setup docs so teams can clean student and classroom data before generation.
