Confirm the scheduling method

Two general scheduling methods are available: Elementary and Secondary [>>]. Typically, a school uses the same scheduling method each year and thus there is no need to change it when creating a school's Planning Calendar [>>]. If, however, a change in the scheduling method [>>] is needed, the School Administrator should consider the following:

A school that employs elementary scheduling for the Active Calendar can change to secondary scheduling in the Planning Calendar.

When the School Administrator makes this change, subjects currently assigned to the school in the Planning Calendar are unassigned and secondary classes cannot be scheduled until the District Administrator assigns courses to the school.

A school that employs secondary scheduling for the Active Calendar cannot change to elementary scheduling in the Planning Calendar.
