How do I use the bulk archive class tool?

3.png Audience: School and District Admins

District and School administrators can bulk archive all of the active classes across their district or school at the same time from the District Admin Dashboard or on the School Admin Dashboard. The below steps show how to bulk archive classes. This feature is most helpful for performing end-of-term and end of year roster maintenance.

Archiving a class will remove a class from your active class list. Archived classes do not count towards your class limit.

🌟 Please note: teachers should follow steps for an individual school. 

Note: any classes that are archived in Seesaw but are still active in Clever/Classlink, will be unarchived if a full sync is performed. If there have been changes in Clever/Classlink, then in the next nightly sync after the change, classes will be unarchived.
