Administrators can publish assignments in the Explore section for all other teachers in the school or district to find. 'My District' makes it easy to keep teachers organized around the same set of assignments or assessments. The 'My District' section appears in Explore when assignments or assessments have been shared by an administrator.
❗Note: Current Administrators can give school and district leaders Admin rights to publish to 'My District' using these directions.

'My District' Overview
We recommend sharing to 'My District' if your school or district is:
Managing shared curriculum and resources during times of virtual learning.
Creating a more uniform, aligned writing program, where teachers are moving together through a shared set of assignments and assessments.
Investing in OER curriculum development, where a customized set of assignments and assessments need to be shared across a school or district.
Having a shared set of assignments or assessments vastly improves vertical alignment, teacher confidence, and student growth. The Writable team can help you prepare and publish assignments to 'My District'. Please email our team at support@writable.com to inquire about a planning call.
Using My District as an Administrator
Make sure you have an assignment copied and ready to publish. Follow these directions to create an assignment from scratch or copy a pre-made assignment.
❗ Note: Administrators can also add Shared Assessments to 'My District'. Shared Assessments differ from assignments as they cannot be edited by the teacher. We recommend using Shared Assessments to ensure all teachers are using the district-approved content/rubrics. Learn more about creating a Shared Assessment here.
