District Administrator: How to Make a User Not Active/Inactive in Your District

When those with the role of Observer, School Administrator, or Assistant School Administrator leave your district, you can make their account Not Active so they no longer have access to the district or campus information. Additionally, they will no longer show up in your district's reports.

When this is done, the user that has been made Not Active will only have access to the Appraisers page (in order to take the T-TESS certification test) as well as the materials and resources available to them.

This process is also similar to removing a Teacher account by making them Not Active as well.

Here are the steps to making those with the role of Observer, School Administrator, or Assistant School Administrator Not Active. Below this will be the steps for making a Teacher account Not Active.

1. Go to TeachforTexas.org and click on the 'Login' link at the top right of the page to login to your existing account.

   

2. Once logged in, on the site’s top menu click on 'Districts', then click on the 'Evaluation Management' link, then, click on the 'Appraiser Accounts' link from the dropdown list.
