Before you close out the year, invest a few minutes now to prepare for taxes and student roster changes that are around the corner. Below, you’ll also find a quick survey where you can offer feedback on brightwheel’s billing and payment features.

Read on for best practices to have an intentional, superb start to the new year. ✨


Get ahead of taxes with brightwheel’s easy reports for you and your families.

With tax season around the corner, delight families by showing them how to pull their own tax information from brightwheel. Simply share our ready-made PDF as an attachment to a brightwheel Message or upload it in Document Hub. For your program’s tax filing, use the Billing Transactions report or visit this handy resource hub for any tax questions you may have!

Save time preparing for the new year with bulk actions in brightwheel.

As children move rooms, graduate, and enroll for the new year, you can update multiple enrollment statuses and homeroom assignments at once. This can be done by navigating to an individual Room, selecting multiple students, and then updating their homerooms or statuses accordingly. ✅ You can also make bulk updates to your roster using the Roster Upload Tool.
