Combing Student list and Classes they took to one sheet

[Chase]

This is the last step I have in a larger project. Any help would be
appreciated. A sample workbook is attached with a desired results tab.

In one sheet (List of People): I have a list of Student Names and each
grade level they attended while at my school.
In another sheet (Class Breakdown): I have a list of the kids and the
classes they took. One can assume that for the Students that were
there for more than one year, they took the same breakdown of classes
each year [the Class Breakdown sheet contains no year information,
only student and class].

For each entry in 'List of People' I need unique lines for each
project that person took. So for example: in 'Class Breakdown' Amanda
has taken 4 classes: Math, Philosophy, English, and French. In 'List
of People' I have that Amanda went here for 3 years

Code:
Freshman Amanda
Sophomore Amanda
Junior Amanda

So I would then need the results page to show

Code:
Freshman Amanda Math
Freshman Amanda Philosophy
Freshman Amanda English
Freshman Amanda French
Sophomore Amanda Math
Sophomore Amanda Philosophy
Sophomore Amanda English
Sophomore Amanda French
Junior Amanda Math
Junior Amanda Philosophy
Junior Amanda English
Junior Amanda French

Any help would be appreciated. It is important to note, that there
will also be numbers in the columns to the right of this information
(hense the random data in the sample spreadsheet).

On the classes sheet, insert col A and use this or a macro
=INDEX('List of People'!A:A,MATCH(B2,'List of People'!B:B,0))
"If desired, send your file to dguillett @gmail.com I will only look
