Why you should archive your Google Classroom . . .

As the school year is coming to an end and you are cleaning up your physical classroom, you should take a few minutes to archive your Google Classrooms from this school year.

By clicking on the three dots in the top right corner of your Google Classroom you can quickly archive your classrooms and get ready for the 2017-2018 school year!  Not only will archiving previous year's Classrooms declutter your Google Classroom dashboard, but your current students will not need to navigate around your Classrooms next year.

During the course of next school year, if you would like to reuse a post from an archived classroom you have that option by clicking on the plus in the bottom right corner.
