Admin: Subjects

  • Updated

Initially, your Atlas has been set up with your school defined Subjects. However, as a System Admin, you can add, edit, and delete subjects that appear in the Atlas system via Admin > Admin Dashboard > Subjects

When updating a Subject in Atlas, you impact all current year courses and recycled courses associated with it. Therefore, exercise caution when deleting a subject. The system will provide an option to reassign related courses and course titles to another subject before deletion.

Add a New Subject

From Admin > Admin Dashboard > Subjects:

1. Click Add New Subject button.

2. Type the new subject name in the Subject field.

3. Select the Identifier from the drop-down menu that most closely corresponds to the subject. This identifier helps establish a common language for sharing curriculum through the Atlas PLCs. It's not visible to Atlas users, feel free to select the most relevant or Other. 

4. Click Save to apply your changes.

Edit or Delete a Subject

From Admin > Admin Dashboard > Subjects > in the Actions column:

  • Click Edit to update the subject name or identifier as desired. Click Save to apply your changes.
  • Click Delete to remove a subject from Atlas:
    • Atlas will not allow a subject to be deleted if current year courses and course titles are assigned to it. Atlas will display a list of courses and course titles that must be reassigned to another subject or removed before the subject can be deleted.
