Data & Backup
Your live school data lives in the cloud and syncs across every device automatically. The tools below work on a downloadable copy of that data on this device — handy for keeping an offline backup file. They do not change the cloud on their own.
Demo Mode
Load a fully populated demo: 13 employees across the School Leadership Team and all seven departments, 70 students (10 per grade, 7th through 12th and Prep, based on the 2026-2027 enrolled roster), with parents on file, 5 active projects, 6 cross-department transfers, 3 mission orders, a week of huddles, action items, and parent comms. Use this to demo the dashboard. Reset to clear it.
Export / Import
Export Full Backup downloads a JSON snapshot of everything currently loaded — a safe offline copy you can archive. Import Backup and Reset only affect this browser's local copy; they do not push to or wipe the cloud, and the next cloud sync overwrites them. To change the whole school in the cloud, use Roster → Onboarding: Wipe & Import.
Empty the inbox for launch. Removes all demo messages, personal emails, and tasks from the cloud and sets the notification and Personal Email counts to zero. Does not touch students or staff.
