As you prepare your TalkingPoints accounts for the upcoming school year or term and want to ensure that your accounts only contain data synced from your SIS via Clever or ClassLink, or uploaded through the .csv Self-Serve Uploader, then follow the steps below to mass delete any manually added students, staff, and groups from your school's TalkingPoints accounts.

Please Note: You will only see this option if your district has given school admins the ability to delete data, or if you are part of a single school account.

Step 1: Navigate to the "Schools Settings" page from your left-hand menu and click on "Delete Manually Added Data" in the upper right-hand corner.

Step 2: Use the check-boxes to select which manually added data you'd like to delete: classrooms, staff, or students. You'll notice a number in parentheses after each to indicate how many manually added records you have in your district account. After selecting groups, staff, and/or students, click Delete.

Step 3: You'll receive an additional message letting you know that deleting this data is permanent and cannot be reversed. To proceed, click "Yes, Delete."

You'll receive a confirmation screen letting you know your manually added data has been deleted from your account. You should only have data from your SIS, synced through Clever or ClassLink, or uploaded through the .csv Self-Serve Uploader remaining.
