Seat Assignment Wheel
New seating always draws complaints, so take yourself out of it: let the wheel assign the desks. Put your seat labels on the wheel, call students up one at a time, and spin for each. With "remove winner" on, every seat is handed out exactly once and the arrangement is impossible to argue with. For a full plan at once, use the seating chart generator.

Seat Assignment Wheel questions
How is this different from the seating chart generator?
This assigns seats one spin at a time in front of the class, which feels fair and lets you stop early. The seating chart generator produces a whole arrangement at once when you'd rather set it up before students arrive.
Can I keep certain students apart?
A random draw can't enforce that. Assign the seats, then swap two by hand if a pairing won't work — or plan those placements first and spin only for the remaining seats.
Can I reserve a seat?
Yes — just delete that seat from the wheel before you start, and place the student there directly. Spin for everything that's left.
