Click the red-lock icon of the assessment you wish to administer. The green-lock icon
indicates the assessment is unlocked and available for students to access. If a Testing Window has been set by your district, you will only be able to unlock the assessment within those dates.
Teachers, Support Teachers, School Admins, or District Admins may unlock assessments for courses they have access to. This process should be repeated for any class that has assessments you wish to administer*.
