A Section is a unit for a set or group of students based on a common academic characteristic such as learning program and grade or year level. It is sometimes known as a "block", "section block", or a "block section".

Only a faculty member assigned as a section adviser will have sections listed in Homeroom Sections.

Managing a Section as a Faculty

A Grado Faculty, via the Faculty Portal, can do the following:
