- You want to disable the district's School Loop website permanently because you have decided to stop using School Loop (OR)
- You want to temporarily take the district's School Loop website down.

- Customers may want to decommission or delete a school site or the whole district's site when they are closing the school or decided to stop using School Loop.
- Customers can also ask the district to be suspended temporarily for a year even if they have an active contract with School Loop. In this scenario, the district will only be suspended and not decommissioned.

Solution
- <supportagent>The request to disable a school/district site needs to be submitted by a District Admin or Account Manager (if the customer contacted them directly and canceled the contract).
- L1 agents need to have access to School Loop Live.
- L2 agents need access to the Jump Server.</supportagent>
You should be a District Admin to place a request with School Loop support for disabling a School or District School Loop website. The support team will get back to you after getting the needed approvals.
Note: Once a District is decommissioned, all personally identifiable user data is depersonalized and then all data is removed within 60 days.
- <supportagent>If the request is submitted by a customer, please follow How to check license information for all IgniteTech products and next steps to check the opportunities. If you see a "closed lost" which is in line with the customer's request you are approved to decommission the school/district site based on the end date of the current contract.
- Log in to School Loop Live.
- Search for the required District/School (CTRL+F) and click on its name.
- Log in as an admin with webmaster rights and make sure that the school site is unpublished. If the site is active, unpublish it.
- If you need to disable the whole district (including all school sites), click Suspend District from the Toolbox (after you opened the district portal), and then click Change next to suspended.
- If you need to disable the whole district (including all school sites), click Suspend District from the Toolbox (after you opened the district portal), and then click Change next to suspended.
