Announcement: School Data Sync Preview!
New on Office Blogs today: Back to school with Microsoft Classroom and School Data Sync. It’s back-to-school time in the U.S. and many other countries, and we’re excited to invite you to the Microsoft Classroom Preview and the School Data Sync (SDS) Preview. IT admins can visit the preview instructions right now or (for a limited time) sign up to receive free one-on-one help directly from Microsoft. School Data Sync (SDS) helps schools automatically create online classes used by Microsoft Classroom. It also helps Student Information System (SIS) and app partners to integrate with each other so they can build richer learning experiences for the classroom. SDS supports importing CSV files—so it supports virtually every SIS in the market. School IT admins: Get the preview for Microsoft Classroom and SDS.

Announcing School Data Sync General Availability!
Hello Everyone, and welcome to the new Microsoft Tech Community focused on Microsoft School Data Sync. We are excited to announce that School Data Sync (SDS), our online classroom automation solution, is moving from preview to general availability! SDS helps schools save time and money by automatically creating online classrooms in Office 365 from their Student Information System (SIS or MIS). For more information, or to sign up for free deployment support for a limited time, please http://aka.ms/sdsga This tech community is a place for peers to share ideas, ask questions, offer suggestions, and provide community support. Microsoft folks will check in to make sure things are running smoothly. Now that hundreds of customers in over 20 countries have already used SDS to sync over 100,000 teachers and 2 million students, I hope this will become a popular gathering spot for school IT admins who use School Data Sync. Thank you, Matt McGinnis Microsoft School Data Sync Product Manager
