Once teachers and/or administrators have been rostered through one of the available rostering methods (ClassLink, SFTP Nightly Sync, Manual), their Summit K12 class must be created to access content and begin enrolling students.
The Add Class tool is only available if your school district has enabled the ability for teachers and admins to create their own classes. This tool is under development and will be available for partners to use in August 2024! See the steps below for instructions.
If this tool is disabled, then class creation in Summit K12 is being handled by your district’s IT/Tech Administrators through a Full Roster or LMS integration.
- Full Roster Integration: Automatically creates classes for students and teachers as defined by the data in your Student Information System (SIS) that is exported to Summit K12.
- LMS Integration (Schoology, Canvas, or Google Classroom): Handles class creation once a student clicks on deployment links in the select LMS integration.
Please contact your district’s IT/Tech Administrators or Summit K12 Support for additional guidance if you are missing a class on Summit K12.
Follow the steps below to create a class:
1. Log in to Summit K12 and select My Courses.
2. Select +Add Class.
3. Complete all required fields before selecting Create Class.
- Class Name: Name of your class as it will appear for students, enrolled support teachers, and on Summit K12 reports.
- Subject: Choose the Summit K12 program for your class. Available subjects will vary depending on the subscription(s) purchased.
- Primary Teacher: Choose whether you are creating a class for yourself or another teacher. Only users with a School or District Admin level account on Summit K12 will be able to create classes for another teacher.
- Period: Identify the class period. If a class of the selected subject already exists for Period 1, input 2 (or 3, etc) instead.
