4. Use the following table to enter information in the fields:

   Field	Description
   Course Number	Enter the course number.
   Expression	Select the checkboxes for the combination of days and periods in which this section meets. For example, select the checkbox for Period 1 and Day A if a section of Chemistry meets during first period on A days.
   Teacher	The selected teacher appears.
   Room	Enter the room in which this course section meets.
   Section Number	Enter the section number in this field. Do not enter special characters. Note: Section numbers must be unique among sections of the same course for a given school year.
   Term	Choose the appropriate term from the pop-up menu.
   Grade Level	If this course is available only for a certain grade level, enter the grade level. Otherwise, leave this field blank.
   Grade Scale	Choose the grade scale from the pop-up menu. For more information, see Grade Scales.
   Maximum Enrollment	Enter the maximum number of students who can enroll in this course section.
   Where Taught	If this course section is taught outside your school, enter the school's ID in this field. If it is taught at your school, leave this field blank.
   Dependent Sections	If this course section has dependent sections, enter them in this field using the course.section, course.section format. If a student is enrolled in a class, it is not teacher-specific, but rather section-specific. Often used by elementary schools where students take a set of classes, dependent sections indicate that if a student is registered in one class, he or she must also register for the dependent class. If the dependent section conflicts with another class, you can manually drop the student from the class and add him or her to another section. This function has no implications with prerequisites or graduation requirements.
   Record Attendance Using Attendance Mode	Use the pop-up menu to indicate the method by which you want attendance recorded. At this time, Meeting attendance is your only option.
   Record Attendance	If the section meets more than one period in a day, you can choose to take attendance once or for every period by selecting the Once for All Meetings option or the Each Meeting Separately option.
   Exclude From Attendance	Select the checkbox if you do not want attendance and enrollment in this section to be counted towards any ADA/ADM calculations.
