Creating New Sections
For Elementary Scheduling
- If you have an additional teacher added to your campus, you will need to create new sections.
For example: Say last year you had four 1st grade teachers, and this year you have five. You will need to add additional sections to account for the extra teacher.
Section Fast Form
- You will navigate to the entry point Section Fast Form.
- Remember to select the correct Fiscal Year and Calendar ID.
- For the position, you will need to find the new teacher.
- If the position hasn't been filled yet, you will need to find the vacant position which will be named "No Assignment" and assign course sections to that PCN. Then when the teacher is hired in to the PCN, they will have their sections.

You will have to add this teacher's new section number to each course the teacher will be teaching. (Also the specials taught by different teachers. PE, Music and Art).
