A student in our school changed their last name recently.  As an admin, I need to create change his profile over to his name AND email address. By creating a new email address, is there anything I would need to change in Google Classroom? 

thanks,
Sheryl Anderson

Just change the existing name and email address. Google is ill automatically create an alias with old name and will automatically update everywhere.

How!? The school did change her last name the teachers all have her new name but the Google classrooms did not change . We are submitting and doing work under her old last name I’m getting zero responses from anybody from the IT department in school or the district I thought maybe Google could do it?

Also I thought maybe her work doesn’t count ? It’s not the right name...

If she was removed from the Classroom, then rejoined?
