 ====== How to Remove Empty Sections ======
+At first glance, a zero (0) enrollment might show an empty section; however, often times there are dropped students still enrolled in the section and might even have other data attached such as attendance and grades. All of these pieces must be addressed to clear the database and avoid orphaned records. Before contacting the SIS Technician to delete empty sections, ensure all the dropped students have been removed along with the attendance codes and grades. The exit dates also need to be set accordingly.
+**To remove dropped student from section:**
+  * Select <specific school> under the //School:// drop-down menu
+  * Search for the student
+  * Click Quick Lookup
+  * Click the **Show dropped classes also** link
+  * Notice if any grades were recorded for the dropped class
+{{:is:quick_lookup_show_dropped.png}}
+  * Navigate to the **Attendance** page
+  * Click **Meeting**
+  * Click **Show dropped classes also**
+  * Remove (or move) any attendance codes for the dropped class
+{{:is:powerschool:attendance_show_dropped.png}}
+  * Click **All Enrollments**
+  * Locate the dropped class and click on **Edit**
+  * Notice the Enroll Date and the Exit Date //need to be the same date// before the section can be deleted

+  * Modify the **DateLeft** field to equal the **EnterDate** for each dropped student
+Once all of these steps have been completed, contact the SIS Technician to delete the truly empty section.
