Calendar — Adding an event

 Note

Monarch is a web application that can be used on a browser on any device. To account for the smaller screen real estate on mobile devices, Monarch's menus are tucked away so that you can more easily view what's currently on your screen.

You can add events, such as field trips, family holidays, and sick days, to your student's calendar. When you add a new event, you can choose to reschedule assignments to make room for the event. Once you've created an event, you can view it on the calendar. You can also edit events and delete them if necessary.
