School Sharing Settings

Cross-School Sharing 

By default, schools can only access content from within their own building. To allow content sharing across schools: 

1. Go to Administrator Tools > Manage Schools.
2. Open the More menu next to a school.
3. Click Update School Shares.
4. Check the boxes for schools you want this school to share content with.

Warning

Cross-school sharing is one-way. You’ll need to update each school’s shares individually if you want mutual access. 

Cross-school sharing affects: 

• Search All Content – Users will be able to find shared media across selected schools 
• Shared Insights – Insights shared internally will become discoverable by selected schools 
• Search for Badges – Badge associations and tracking can reflect shared visibility
