Archiving or Deleting Classes

Archiving or deleting old classes are a great way to keep your dashboard up-to-date and easy-to-navigate. Archiving a class will leave your class roster and reports intact, but will hide the class from your active class menu. Deleting a class is permanent, and will remove the class, and all linked students, from your account. Please note that while deleting a class will remove the students from your account, it will not delete their accounts entirely. Select the appropriate drop-down below.
