Delete A Community

Delete A Community

To delete a community, navigate to the Manage Communities page (Teacher Tools) and click the “edit” icon (pencil/paper) to the right of the community name and access code. You can delete the selected community by clicking the delete button at the bottom of the page. Be aware that if something has been shared outside of the community (to the main stream or public stream), the shared version of that post will still remain, because each shared item is duplicated when you share it.

WARNING: Deleting a community removes all announcements, posts and comments associated with that community. This action is not recoverable.
