Archiving an assignment removes it from your main Assignments page and makes it unavailable to students. However, you'll still be able to view its data at any time.

Deleting an assignment permanently removes it from your account, including all related data. Once deleted, it cannot be recovered.

We recommend archiving rather than deleting so you can keep access to valuable assignment data in the future.

Archiving an Assignment

To archive an assignment, start from your Teacher Home Page and select the classroom containing the assignment you'd like to archive.

  1. Click the “Assignments” button on the left panel.

  2. Locate the assignment you want to archive.

  3. Click the gear-shaped Settings icon in the top-right corner of the assignment.

  4. Select “Archive Assignment” from the dropdown menu.

  5. In the pop-up window, click the red “Yes, archive!” button to confirm.

The assignment will now be removed from the student view, but you’ll still be able to access its data anytime.

Locating Archived Assignments

To view archived assignments in your classroom:

  1. Go to the Assignments page by clicking the “Assignments” button on the left panel.

  2. At the top of the page, select the “Archived” tab to view all archived assignments.

From there, you can:

  • Click the gear-shaped Settings icon on an assignment and select “Restore Assignment” to move it back to active status.

  • Or choose “Delete Assignment” to permanently remove it from your account.

Deleting an Assignment

To delete an assignment:

  1. Go to your Teacher Home Page and select the classroom with the assignment you'd like to delete.

  2. Click the “Assignments” button on the left panel.

  3. Find the assignment you want to delete and click the gear-shaped Settings icon in the top-right corner of the assignment.

  4. Choose “Delete Assignment” from the dropdown.

  5. In the pop-up, click the red “Yes, delete!” button to permanently remove the assignment.

⚠️ Note: Deleted assignments cannot be recovered and their data will be permanently lost.

Happy Teaching!
