Curriculum Administrator - District Bank Management Resources
Use the curriculum admin guide to manage assessments, district banks, and instructional resources.
Curriculum Administrators can create, manage, and share assessment banks with teachers across their district for supported learning programs. They have access to the same assessment banks as teachers for each program taught at their schools, as well as access to assessment banks created specifically for administrators.
Refer to the Curriculum Administrator - Custom Assessment Resources article for details on managing custom assessments.
For Wonders and Maravillas products, Curriculum Administrators can also create and share District Planners. For more information, refer to the Wonders/Maravillas - District Planner Manager article.

New for the 2025-26 School Year!
Curriculum Administrators can now easily manage District Banks with updated features and views. With the new Add Assessments side panel, add multiple McGraw Hill assessments to your District Bank at one time. The ability to share District Banks has also been streamlined to easily share banks with teachers to ensure students complete the same assessment across all schools so administrator reports are as accurate as possible.
Best Practices
- Use the bank locking feature available when sharing District Banks with teachers. Sharing assessment banks with teachers can ensure teachers throughout the district are giving the same assessment to students, allowing for administrator reports to generate successfully.
- Share Settings: Locked (Recommended) – Teachers can only assign assessments and cannot edit them. We highly recommend using the Locked option to ensure that Administrator Reports are accurate across the schools and district.
- Create a different District Bank for each IEP that is needed for students.
- If multiple admins are managing District Banks, ensure users are communicating about changes being made by one another to assessments within a District Bank.
- Remove assessments from the District Bank if it is no longer needed or accurate to prevent teachers from assigning them to students.
Things to be aware of:
- Allowing teachers to make adjustments to assessments, such as adding/removing questions and changing student settings, can prevent assessment data from successfully rolling into administrator reports.
- Making changes to an assessment after it has been assigned to students will make different assessments show within administrator reports, even if they have the same name.
- If multiple users are managing District Banks and using the same login information, be aware that changes to assessments are not tracked.
Administrator-Specific Assessment Banks
In addition to the McGraw Hill assessments available to teachers, some programs offer assessment banks created specifically for Curriculum Administrators. These special assessments are available to share with teachers or to use as a base for creating new assessments to share across schools or a district.
Assessment Bank Availability
Curriculum Administrators have access to assessment banks for all programs that use the MH Assess option, such as those on the Open Learning Platform and select ConnectED programs such as Wonders, Everyday Mathematics 4, Networks 2018, Open Court Reading, and more.
For steps on creating, managing, and sharing assessments for programs that use eAssessment, refer to the eAssessment - Create & Edit Tests and eAssessment - Share Tests and Question Sets as an Admin articles.
