I do believe you and the RS president and the HP group leader may have some additional rights in the employment website.

Question 2 - when I go under the lesson schedule for our branch under Elders Quorum and attempt to enter the planned lessons for the first and fourth Sunday I am unable to change anything.
According to the help files, you should have rights to enter your lessons in your own lesson schedule. You cannot add events for the branch, such as general conference or stake conference, as a branch admin must do that. I know my wife can add a schedule and add the classes, and she is a RS secretary. Not sure if a branch has the same access rights as a ward, but, from the help files:
Go to the main Lesson schedule page, and you should see a "manage class schedules" option in brown print (near top right, by
print and
help option.) Don't see it? Are you properly called in MLS as President? If you do see it, you can do what you need to do.
Read help file about adding events such as general conference FIRST so you know how they will affect your schedule when done in different orders. I would ask ward admins to add any regional, stake, ward, special temple dedication and general conference events first, double check their dates, then delete and re-add my elders schedule, then add my lessons.
Choose "manage class schedules," then look for an Elders quorum schedule. If one exists, next to it on left is your edit icon, a box with a pencil. On the right is an "active" column box and a delete "x." If the schedule is "greyed out" (not active) you can activate it by checking the box. Admins could also do this for you. If it doesn't exist, make one by "add a class" on top left. These are all things my wife as RS secretary can do, so if you can't do it, something is wrong with your access or the help files are incorrect.
