Description of this scene: Grade Setup Tab Screen __9______ of _12______ Narration: Once you have your categories set up, you are ready to set up percentages for the entire year. Click on the Grade Setup Tab. Begin with Y1. Choose Term Weights and assign the percentages 50 and 50 to S1 and S2. If your class has an end of course test, then assign the percentages 40, 40, and 20 to S1, S2, and CO which is the abbreviation used for the End of Course test. Save your changes. Now, for both S1 and S2 you want to choose Term weights and set your percentages to 40, 40, and 20 for Q1, Q2, and E1. Save your changes. These percentages are district policy, so we do not have flexibility over Quarter and Semester weights.

Screen size: ___4:3_______ 16:9, 4:3, 3:2 Video of a Screen Recording

Narration Continued: We do however have more flexibility over how much each category is weighted within each quarter. In order to set up your quarters, begin with Q1, on the bottom left is where you can add a category once you select the categories that you would like added, click OK. Assign the percentage that you wish for each category. Make sure your percentages always add up to 100. Save your changes. You can now copy this set up to all of your quarters by selecting the Copy button. Select Q1 only, OK, and then select the 3 additional quarters to copy your set up to. Click Next and then Finish. At this point, you have one of your classes set up for the entire year. If your classes use different categories or percentages, you will set them up following the previous instructions. If your classes all use the same categories and percentages, click the copy button again and this time choose Entire Class, OK, and then select the classes to copy to, Next, and then Finish. One other important piece of information regarding the Grade Set up tab. Notice there is a start and end date for each term, anything outside of these dates will not be recorded for that specific term. This Grade Set up process must be completed at the beginning of each school year in order to set up your classes.

In order to print interim reports, choose Student Multi-Section Report. Select Total Student Schedule, Final Grades and uncheck Assignments. Also, be sure to uncheck the box that says Include terms with no grades. Finally another handy report is the Student Roster. Here you can print exactly that, however you also have many different column titles such as Parent Contact, Gender, Grade Level, which are automatically filled in when the report is Run. But you can also create your own column titles. I have used this when students are signing out materials for a certain project, but the uses are endless. When you run your reports, you have the option of running them as a PDF file or many of them can also be exported as an excel document. The first is the attendance grid, simply you can print a roster with or without dates that can be used to take attendance or to create a quick attendance sheet for a substitute. Next, there is the Individual Student Report, this will print out a detailed list of each grade that the student has made in the class. You can also choose for category averages to print.
