Google Sheets classroom seating chart template (better: paste into a maker)

Template intent is real—but a static Sheets grid will not keep chatty students apart after a reshuffle. Copy names out of Sheets/Docs/Excel and paste them here.

Same maker used below: paste a roster, set keep-apart / chatty rules, shuffle, drag free, print PDF. Names stay on your device.

Queries like google sheets classroom seating chart template, google docs classroom seating chart, and excel classroom seating chart template signal “I just need something printable.” A blank grid works once. The second time you reshuffle with IEP or keep-apart rules, the spreadsheet fights you.

Fast path from Sheets / Docs / Excel

  1. Copy the name column from your spreadsheet (or export CSV).
  2. Paste into the roster box above (or upload CSV—first column = name).
  3. Pick rows, pods, U-shape, or horseshoe.
  4. Add keep-apart / chatty / front-row rules → Shuffle → drag → Print PDF.
Why leave the template? This maker keeps names in your browser only, never uploads the roster, and does not put ads beside student names. Drag-after-shuffle stays free.
