The Classes Panel on the Home Screen lists all classes students are enrolled in as well as their current average and Subjective Performance Indicator, if their teacher has chosen to share them with their students.

The Mailbox stores all messages sent and received in a user’s Edsby account. Students cannot delete the messages stored in their mailbox – all messages will remain until their account is deactivated. Other communications, such as permission forms and requests to join closed groups, are also stored in the mailbox. When receiving a new message, a red bubble counter will appear on the envelope icon.
The Personal Calendar combines the events from all school, group, and class calendars.
If enabled through account settings, new Notifications will appear under the bell icon with a red bubble counter. Clicking the icon will show the notifications and remove the red bubble.
