The Manage Sections page allows you to view and manage multiple sections. Sections that display on the page are based on your school access.
On the Manage Sections page, you can make bulk updates such as:
- Archive sections
- Reenable archived sections
- Change dates of sections
- Edit the primary and additional teachers of sections
- Change the grade level of sections
Benefits
The ability to update sections in bulk can be helpful when addressing:
- Term setup: Update start dates, target dates, and grade levels across multiple sections at once instead of editing each section individually.
- Staffing changes: Assign, replace, remove, or unassign teachers across a group of sections when teaching responsibilities change.
- Schedule or calendar adjustments: Shift section dates in bulk when a district changes its academic calendar, term dates, or pacing expectations.
- Program or grade-level changes: Update grade level for several sections when the same course is being used across different student populations or grade bands.
- Section cleanup: Use Section Name search and filters to identify duplicate or outdated sections, then take bulk action on the correct group.
- Standardizing section settings: Once available, apply the same Section or Active Enrollment Edit Options across multiple sections to reduce inconsistent configuration.
