Homework Due Range

Set Default Homework Due Date Range for Course

When a teacher adds coursework to SchoolFront, they can define the assigned on date and the due date. Generally configuration of the dates is a manual task for a teacher, but if a teacher has a typical duration of days (from the date they assign the coursework to the date on which it is due), they can set a default homework due date range in the system to cut out some of the manual work.
