I am new to Macs, is there away to make windows span across multiple screens. I have two dell screens connect to a dell hub. When I drag a window across the screens, if does not show up on both screens, it shows partially on one screen.

You may also need to go into System Settings > Desktop & Dock, and turn off the Displays have separate Spaces switch.
Extended desktop mode and being able to stretch windows across displays been around for a very, very long time – since Apple released the Macintosh II in March 1987. Mission Control and Spaces add an extra layer, where you can have multiple "Desktops", and that could interfere with using the older feature.

Are you running in extended desktop mode?
If so, have you arranged the screens in System Settings > Displays to (roughly) match the physical positions of the actual displays? The Mac does not know where displays are physically related with respect to each other except to the extent that you tell it.
I am running in extended desktop mode and have matched the physical positions of the displays in System Settings > Displays. The windows move as expected across the displays; however, if I try to get the window to partially display on both screens, the window partially displays only on one screen. Thanks for the help.
