Wrapping Up: Archiving Google Classroom

With the school year quickly coming to a close, it is time to start cleaning the clutter in your Google Classroom and prepping for next year. While you could potentially remove all of your students from Google Classroom and re-use your class for next year, I would recommend an alternative:

Archive your class and re-use your posts.

Archiving a class will remove your class from view (there is an "Archived Classes" menu option to view the classes you have chosen to archive). It will also make the class inactive so students can no longer edit assignments and share posts.

For next year, you can quickly create a new Google Classroom for your students to join, and you can re-use your old posts, even from classes you have archived.

Check out the brief video tutorial below to learn how to archive your classes and re-use your posts.
