New as of June 2023, Class Display Names give administrators an easy way to manage the naming of classes that appear in Gradient. 

Class Display Names are optional and provide a more readable alternative to the original class name. They are used throughout the product, including teacher accounts, printed forms, and the student portal. An asterisk denotes a class with a Display Name, and hovering over it reveals the original name.

2. Check the box before a class name to reveal the Edit icon on the right in the toolbar. Select Edit.
