💡 Here is guidance for how to roll-over your TalkingPoints accounts, including actions to clean up data from the 24-25 school year as well as how to prepare for the 25-26 school year. We estimate this will take 1-2 hours to complete.
An important note: We know every district has a unique approach to roll-over. Please note that we continue to sync with your integration method (Clever, ClassLink, or TalkingPoints Connector) on a nightly basis throughout the summer. This means we will continue to ingest your data and display it in your TalkingPoints accounts. If you pause your sync, we will continue to display data from your last successful sync.
🧹 Clean Up from SY 24-25
Before July 1:
Set your roll-over date. Unless you indicate a different date, staff inboxes will be archived (still accessible) to clean up for the new year on July 1.
Before you share new data for SY 25-26:
Review your staff list
Manually Maintained + Manually Added Staff
🌱 Prepare for SY 25-26
We’re excited and proud to be making impactful new features available within your accounts for the new year. Please take some time to review and configure, if applicable.

If you’re interested in changing how you integrate with TalkingPoints - or have any other updates you think we should know - please reach out to your PSM.
We also encourage you to communicate with your staff and families about what they can expect in their TalkingPoints accounts:
Staff:
Set out-of-office messages if they’re not teaching summer school
Let them know the date by which they can expect new schedules to be available to them in TalkingPoints
Families:
Families who use the Family App will lose access to old messages
Families who use text will not be able to continue conversations with the previous year’s teachers
