The moment a project has more than three people involved, things slip through the cracks. This For Teachers is designed to prevent exactly that — clear task ownership, visible deadlines, and a status everyone can see without asking.

What’s inside this For Teachers template

• Task list with owner, deadline, and status — everyone knows what they own and when it is due
• Progress percentage calculator — automatically updates as tasks are marked complete
• Priority tagging — flag urgent or blocked tasks so they are never buried in the list
• Weekly summary view — a snapshot of what is due, in progress, and overdue this week

How to use this For Teachers template

1. Get access using the button above, then save your copy to Drive.
2. Start by listing your project milestones in the milestones tab.
3. Break each milestone into tasks with owners, deadlines, and priority levels.
4. Share the sheet with your team — everyone updates their own tasks directly.

Frequently asked questions

Can I use this for multiple projects at once?

Yes. Duplicate the project tab for each new project and use the summary tab to see progress across all active projects simultaneously.

Does the template send deadline reminders?

Google Sheets does not send notifications natively, but you can set up email alerts using Google Apps Script — a one-time setup that sends a daily summary of overdue tasks.

Can clients see this without seeing internal notes?

Yes. The template includes an instructions tab on how to hide internal columns or create a separate client-facing tab with only the information they need to see.
