Instructions

1. Review the Term Grade for each student in Scores: Assignment Scores. 

2. The final Term Grade can be adjusted by clicking on that grade for that student and choose the grade you wish to give him/her. If a grade is chosen that does not equal their calculated percentage grade, a box will appear around it -- this is a “locked score”.

3. If a student has a “locked score” but you do not wish them to have one, click on that score and scroll to the top of the grade choices and choose “calculated.”

4. Prepare Grades to be sent to the office by going to Edit: Course Grades. 

5. On the Course Grades screen verify the weight of each grading term by clicking on the “Weights->” button. 

6. Import your Term Grades from the Assignment Scores screen by going to the Options menu and choose “Calculate (The Term you are grading) Grades from Scores.”

7. If necessary, calculate the Semester Grade from the quarters by going to the Options menu and choosing “Calculate Sem (The Term you are grading).”

8. Add comments to each student’s report card by moving the cursor to the “Cm” column and click on the comments on the right hand side of the screen. 

9. Review the information for the class you are working on and move to the next class by hitting the “Course” pop-up menu button.

10. After all classes have been completed you must send your grades to the office. Go to File: Teacher to Office. Check the appropriate boxes if you have entered in Grades and/or Standards and Benchmarks.

11. Change the Term on your GradeBook to the next Term by going to the Term menu.
