Managing Student Schedules

✕ Drop a Student from a Class ▶

Only when a student was never truly enrolled — no grades or attendance should exist. If the student attended and has grades, use a Transfer instead.

1Click the course name in the student’s schedule to open it.

2Click the red circle (drop icon) next to the student’s name.

3Enter the drop date — the date the student should be removed. Their record for this class is cleared from reports and calculations.

!Has grades or attendance? Transfer, don’t drop. A drop removes all grades and attendance; a transfer keeps everything intact.

⇄ Transfer a Student to Another Section ▶

Same course, different section. Grades are preserved when a student transfers after the marking period has ended.

1Click the course name in the student’s schedule.

2In the Class Finder window, click the person icon to initiate a transfer to another section.

3Enter the effective transfer date — the date the student moved to the new section.

✓Effective date after the marking period end date? The marking period grade transfers to the new section. Individual assignment grades don’t transfer but stay visible on the progress report for reference.
