The Classes & Groups option lets teachers view, create, or edit their rosters. Read below for what these mean and how to use them!
Classes vs. Groups
Your Groups: These are groups of students you've organized yourself.
Classes (listed under your school's name): These are student rosters assigned to you from the school's student information system (SIS). In these classes, you will typically see your school's name.
School Groups (groups created by Admins): These are groups of students outside of class rosters that your school admin has built or given you access to. These students are can be administered from multiple classes and are not on an official roster of which you are the teacher.
Legacy Label
You might notice a gold label next to some of your groups that say Legacy. This label means you created this group in your free account before your school partnered with TalkingPoints. New students cannot be added to a Legacy Group, however, if you still need access to your Legacy Group, we recommend you create a new Group, which can include students from the Legacy group, so it's fully integrated into your school account. If you no longer need access to a Legacy Group, you can archive it or delete it.
