# How to apply a Lesson Layout to a School Year

## This article will provide users with the information needed to apply their lesson layout to a school year.

You can apply a lesson layout to a school year. The layout will then serve as the default layout for all classes in the school year that do not have a specific lesson layout applied. To apply a lesson layout to a school year:

1. From the Planbook Bar, select **School Years**.
2. Hover on the current school year, and click the **Edit** button.
3. Click the **Lesson Layout** option, and select your layout.
4. Click the **Save** (checkmark) icon in top-right menu to save your changes.

Note that no lesson information will be lost as a result of applying a new lesson layout to a school year. However, if you have lesson information saved in one or more lesson sections that are NOT included in the new layout selected for the school year, you will no longer be able to view or edit this information.

To learn more about Lesson Layouts, please refer to the [Lesson Layout Overview](https://help.planbook.com/knowledgebase/articles/2010419-overview-lesson-layouts?hsLang=en).
