Teaching and Learning Upgrade
Note: If your student information system (SIS) currently integrates with Classroom through One Roster API, you can connect Classroom to your SIS. After you set up the connection, teachers can link their classes and export grades to SIS.
Understanding Gradebook Sync
Google supports syncing assignments and grades between Google Classroom and Infinite Campus, Skyward SMS 2.0, Skyward Qmlative, and Aspen.
Teachers can sync their assignments and grades from Google Classroom back to the internal SIS grade book. For administrators, this integration can help reduce errors, reduce the number of tools teachers need to learn and remove duplicate grade entries. Teachers can push grades and assignments directly to the student information system with a few clicks.
See Google’s support site for more information on Google Classroom Gradebook Sync.
Gradebook Sync features
Administrators can:
- Establish a connection between their SIS and Google Classroom for their domain. This currently applies to Infinite Campus, Skyward only, and Aspen.
- Configure sync settings that apply to Google Classroom teachers in their domain.
If enabled by the administrator, teachers can:
- Manually link existing Google Classroom classes to the SIS.
- Push assignments and grades from Google Classroom to the SIS.
- Unlink any linked class.
Gradebook Sync SIS Data Requirements
Syncing of grades for existing Classroom users to users in the SIS relies on the email address field for users, so a valid Google Workspace email address must be maintained within the SIS for each student.
Refer to Google’s SIS grade export FAQs for more specific information.
Gradebook Sync and Little SIS Premium
Google Gradebook Sync:
- Focuses only on syncing assignments and grades
- Only applies to districts that use a supported OneRoster SIS
If you use Little SIS Premium or our Managed Sync service, your teachers are better equipped to use Google’s Gradebook Sync. Teachers with auto-synced rosters can seamlessly push their assignments and grades automatically back to the SIS without the barrier of roster maintenance or mismatches.
Clever Sync for Google Classroom
Google Workspace for Education Plus districts in the United States can sync their SIS classes to Google Classroom via Clever. For a comparison on Clever sync and Little SIS Premium, refer to this article in our Help Center.
