It's easy to get started adding activities to AllAboutMySchool.com. First, create an account and join our Community!
- Before you can begin, you'll need to register for the site by going to the AllAboutMySchool.com home page and clicking on the “Create An Account” link under the Welcome section
- You'll begin the registration process by filling in the “User Information” form. It will ask for your name, username, email address and password. Once you've filled out the form, hit the “Next” button.
- From there, you'll be prompted to fill out “Basic Information.” All additional information will be in your profile in the AAMS Community. Fill out the “Basic Information” form and at the bottom of the page, click the “Register” button. If you would like to skip this step, you can simply click “Submit” at the bottom of the page. You are now registered! If you would like to view a video demonstration of this process, click here.
If you're a parent or educator who wants to browse AllAboutMySchool.com, you're ready to go!
If you requested to add activities, there are a few more simple steps.
- If you checked "Yes" to adding activities, we will send you an email to let you know you've been set up as an administrator. This may take up to 2 business days.
- Once you are added as an administrator, you can simply go to http://www.allaboutmyschool.com/activity-finder.html and click on "Submit an Activity."
- You'll then be able to fill out the details for your activity.
Adding an Activity for your group is easy:
- First, choose a title for the activity. For example, if you want people to know about your 8th grade class camping trip, call it "8th Grade Camping Trip."
- Next, select a category that your activity falls into.
- For the venue option, you'll want to be specific— choose the correct venue from the list. If you do not see your venue in the list, please select "Submit New Venue," and you can add a new venue to our menu.
- Now you can select the date for your event. If your event spans more than one day, select the first day of your event.
- Next, you'll choose a time for your event. Currently, our website is in military time– please be sure to double check that your time is correct. If your time is after noon, you will add the hour plus 12. So, if your event is at 2:00 p.m., you will put the time in as 14:00. Make sure that you do not input 2:00, or people will think your event is at 2 a.m. instead of 2 p.m.
- You will need to fill in the end date, the end time (again, in military time), and the registration end date.
- Fill in the "Activity Details."
- Choose the season, days, and the age minimum and maximum for who you expect to participate.
- Be sure to fill in price range information, and a contact email address, price information, and whether or not there are scholarship opportunities for participants. Next we'll need a contact name, contact phone number, and website.
- You can upload an image for your event, but please be sure that your image is smaller than 400 KB. Your image needs to be a .gif, .png, or .jpg file.
- Finally, you will need to add a brief, but detailed description of your event so that readers have a clear understanding of your activity.
Once you have completed the form, click the "Save" button. Once you've added a new event, our staff will approve the event and it will be published on the site within 48 hours. To view a video demonstration of adding an activity, please click here.
Once your event is published, people using AllAboutMySchool.com will be able to search for your activity.
If you have any questions, please feel free to contact us by selecting "Contact Us" at the bottom of the page. We are always here to help.
