How do I Change What Class a Student is in?

Overview

Staff with teacher and admin accounts are able to edit class information in myLexia. To move a student from one class to another, someone with myLexia access to each class will need to edit each class.

Administrators: if you would like to move a large number of students into new classes, consider using a spreadsheet upload (manual import).

If your school or district uses automated rostering to roster staffstudentsclasses in myLexia, you should not need to update information in myLexia for staffstudentsclasses that sync with your SIS.

Instructions

Changing a student’s class assignment takes two steps. The student needs to be removed from the original class and added to the new class

Teachers and admins can edit classes in Manage > Classes.

Teachers also have the option to add and remove students from their Class Overview on the Reading tab. See For Teachers: How do I Edit a Class in myLexia?

If you have teacher access to myLexia, you won’t be able to see other teachers' classes. If you would like to remove a student from another teacher’s class, ask someone who does have access to the class (the class teacher or an administrator) to remove the student.
