Change an Existing Section

Most items in the Master Schedule Editor can be changed simply by clicking on the existing item and clicking on the desired replacement. When changing items, warning/verification boxes will appear so read each box carefully and answer appropriately.

• In the set up box ofMaster Schedule Editor, there is an option Update Block Scheduling System. If Yes is chosen, for Validate Changes, it will create a pop up asking to update the Block Fast Loader section when the section is changed in the Master Schedule Editor. But, this will only change the demographics of the section (period, course name, teacher name, etc.). It will not change the placement of the sections in the block schedules as a whole.
• When changing the course name a popup will appear. This is a popup to identify selected items to clear as a result of the course name change. Items available to be cleared include Grade Type, Course Weight, Additional Teachers, and Remote Selection.
• When changing a teacher's name, one of the questions is "Do you wish to replace all of Teacher A's records with Teacher B?". If Teacher B is taking over all of Teacher A's classes, then click "Yes". If only one or some of the classes are being taken over by Teacher B, then click "No"

Delete an Existing Section

1. If there are students in the class, move them to another prior to deletion. The system will not allow deletion of a class if there are students still scheduled to the section.
