Recently I joined a section my _friend_ Impixel created to test out some teacher/student features. My primary account is a student account from when I used to take CS Discoveries+Principles. Over the years, I have amassed 100+ gamelab projects, many of which either are games I worked hard on or other private projects. Losing this account would be a devastating event for me, which leads me to the problem: This security concern. ![Screen Shot 2020-11-18 at 9.14.33 PM](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex016/uploads/codeorgforum/original/2X/c/c15d9c22cdc787861aef9e941f6ecb2bc984c7fa.png) The manage students tab allows you to change the passwords of the students that are part of your section. I happened to be in Impixel’s section, which is a really bad thing because who knows what will happen when malicious intent arises. I cannot unenroll from the section unless he removes me from it himself. He likely does not know about this feature, and it is a good thing that he does not know yet. I would get him to remove me from the section, however, the remove students button is RIGHT NEXT to the change password area. ![Screen Shot 2020-11-18 at 9.28.56 PM](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex016/uploads/codeorgforum/original/2X/f/f72e3ea6e11f348ef659a08b449759de200fa0f2.png) I do have some issues about letting him find out about this and I can’t trust that he wouldn’t mess around. After all, the fate of my account is currently in his hands. If possible, I would like a way to either protect my account or leave the section. ---

Don’t worry I wouldn’t’ve done that even if I knew the feature ---

Hi @infinitestasis, Scroll down on your home page and check if you see the “Leave section” buttons. ![image](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex016/uploads/codeorgforum/original/2X/8/82406d07b1d22a4e2b497472de1b6d871af55cd8.jpeg) Good point about the possible security concern for those who may not have trustworthy section owners. For individual issues, you can also contact [support@code.org](mailto:support@code.org). Frank ---

Hi @infinitestasis, Actually the “Leave section” button might be only for teacher accounts. I’m curious if they show up for you. Thanks! Frank ---

You’re right. I cannot see the leave section button from a student account. ---

I had a student in an old section from a teacher in another school. I emailed [support@code.org](mailto:support@code.org) and they helped.
