Once you have all your subjects uploaded to PLIC Books, you have further abilities to ensure they are listed properly. Your subjects listed under Subject Management will be batched by Teacher. To change your batch from Teacher to Grade:
If you have more than one Yearbook available, ensure you are looking at the correct project by selecting the project name at the top of the screen
