The Class Grade Report allows teachers to set up customizable ‘report card’ style reports. These include a customizable Grade Level (A, B, C, etc.) and a customizable Grade Range (i.e. 90 – 100 % = A). The grading scales can be customized with point values for each test.
Teachers have the ability to set a grading scale for tests on the gray Subject Tabs only. If there are blue (school) or purple (district) managed subject tabs, the grading scales are managed by the school and district.
Below are two videos and step-by-step instructions for using the wizard to set up the grading scales, grading ranges, and running the Class Grade report.
