# Delete a student

## How to delete a student

**Important note**: *When deleting a student, it is important to mark them as inactive. This way, you can retain their attendance/payment history for future reference.*

To set a student as **inactive**, you must follow these steps:

1. Select the student you wish to delete from the **Students** section or through the quick search bar.

2. Within the student's profile, scroll down to the blue **Active** button and click on it to deactivate the student. A message saying **the member is inactive** will appear.

3. **Save** the changes.
