# Manage Student Growth

With **Manage Student Growth**, districts can organize student growth information from a single location in Strive. Users can manually enter or import all student growth data, no matter how it is collected, into Strive to be available for the **TIA Export** and the **TIA Correlation Report**.

> [!NOTE]
> **Note:** District Aware managers can [customize the labels](/v1/docs/customizing-student-growth-rating-labels) attached to [student growth ratings](/v1/docs/student-growth-ratings). For districts that manage student growth ratings with only two labels, Aware managers can customize labels such as Did Not Meet Growth, Met Growth, and N/A. Percentages can be entered in two increments of 100%. In these districts, Student Growth Rating may appear as 20% Does Not Meet Growth, 80% Met Growth, N/A 0%.

District-Level UsersSchool-Level UsersLimited Evaluators

Users with the **Manage Appraisal Settings** right can manage student growth. This right is typically connected to the **Appraisal Administrator** role but can be assigned separately if needed. This right is usually assigned to district managers or someone at the district level.

Users with the Manage Appraisal Settings right can import Student Growth Scores by three methods:

- [Manually enter](/v1/docs/manage-student-growth#entering-scores-manually) a staff member’s scores.
- [Import scores](/v1/docs/manage-student-growth#importing-scores-from-a-portfolio) from a teacher-created student portfolio (if available).
- [Upload a spreadsheet](/v1/docs/manage-student-growth#uploading-a-csv-file) with the required fields.

School-level users with the **Appraise Staff** right and **View Appraisal** right can manage student growth. Within the Manage Student Growth table, they can view all teachers at their assigned schools who have an Evaluation Method set for them. You can add any teacher to the table by changing their Evaluation Method from **Not Set** to an available **Appraisee Type**.

A school-level evaluator who has access to a single school only sees the Year and Appraisee Type table filters. However, they can perform the following methods to import Student Growth Scores:

- [Manually enter](/v1/docs/manage-student-growth#entering-scores-manually) a staff member’s scores.
- [Import scores](/v1/docs/manage-student-growth#importing-scores-from-a-portfolio) from a teacher-created student portfolio (if available).
- [Upload a spreadsheet](/v1/docs/manage-student-growth#uploading-a-csv-file) with the required fields.

**Note:** The day after the last instructional day of your district's instructional calendar, Student Portfolios become inactive, preventing users from importing data to Manage Student Growth in Strive. To continue making Student Portfolios active, you can extend the instructional calendar end date, but be mindful of how such an extension can affect other processes, like Planner days in Beacon. Student Portfolios automatically archive 15 days before the beginning of the next school year.
