We highly recommend archiving your classes from last year as you get started with the new school year. Follow these steps to archive old rosters:

Note: Classes synced with Google Classroom and Schoology will automatically show as archived once they are removed or inactive in the LMS. Writable, Canvas and Ed-linked classes will need to be manually archived using the following directions.

  1. Click on 'Classes' at the top of the page. Then under the 'Active' tab, click on the class title to expand the class.

  2. Once the class has been expanded, click 'Archive Class'.

  3. Archiving a class will unassign all current assignments for the class. This removes student access to the assignments. Click 'Continue' to confirm the archive.

  4. Your class will now be moved from the 'Active' tab to the 'Archived' tab.

  5. If you would like to unarchive your class, click the class title to expand the class, and then click 'Unarchive Class'. You will need to reassign any assignments to that class.

    Note: Co-teachers are not able to archive or unarchive a class. If you are listed as a co-teacher of a class please reach out to the owner of the course to have them unarchive the class. If you are mistakenly listed as the co-teacher of a course but are the owner please reach out to us in live chat or at support@writable.com to have this adjusted.
