Creating Classes for Summer School with ClassLink

Creating classes within the Educator Center simplifies the management of summer school participants. It provides streamlined access for monitoring student progress and generating reports, facilitating efficient oversight of your summer school program.

Leveraging ClassLink for rostering presents multiple options for class creation to support your summer school monitoring and reporting needs. You can choose to create dedicated summer school classes within the district Student Information System (SIS), and sync those classes into the Age of Learning platform or create classes manually in the Educator Center for a more customizable approach to summer school student management.

Important Considerations:

• When setting up classes for summer school within the district SIS to be included in your district’s ClassLink sync, note the scheduled dates for your district’s annual ClassLink pause to begin and end, as this typically occurs over the summer. During this pause, ClassLink will not transmit any updates or modifications to the Age of Learning platform. Ensure all necessary changes are finalized before the ClassLink sync is paused.
  
  
• Whether creating summer school classes via SIS/ClassLink or manually creating classes in the Educator Center, ensure that all classes are named in a way that distinguishes them from classes in the regular school year (e.g., Summer 2024 – Teacher Last Name – Grade).
  
  
• If classes are manually created directly in the Educator Center, identify someone to manage the removal of the summer classes once summer school is over and all reporting needs are complete.
