Yes, if know you are going to take the Standard Deduction you can skip putting in the information in the Deduction and Credit Section.
You may want to review the Deduction and Credit section for other items that you qualify for such as Child Care Credit, IRA Contributions, etc. that are not specifically part of the Itemized Deductions.
