Google Classroom- Clean Up Before You Go
At the end of each school, it is important for teachers to ARCHIVE (not delete) any classes that aren't wrapping around to the following year. This isn't just an important step for the digital classroom organization for teachers, but it is critical for students as well. Why? Because students are no longer able to unenroll or archive their own classes. Don't worry, all of the information and assignments will be saved, and be "Re-used" next year, it's just that the class is hidden from view. ~AO
