The Grade Level Code indicates the current grade level of the student.
Kindergarten Schedule

Days
The Days tab provides a calendar type of view for all of the days in the school calendar, determined by the year, school and calendar selected in the Campus toolbar. The Days tab also displays which Period Schedules are assigned to a particular day, if any special events are assigned to a day, or if a particular day is not recording attendance, is not an instruction day, or is not a school day. Please see the Days article for more information.
Overrides
Calendar overrides apply to the programs a school offers to students. Overrides may be set for a person or on a household address. Person overrides take precedence over the household address override. A student may be denied enrollment to a school if the student does not live at an address within the school boundary. In this case, the student would need to obtain a person override to attend the school based on a specific curriculum program or administrative decision. Please see the Calendar Override article for more information.
Calendar GPA
The Calendar GPA tab lists all available Custom GPA Calculation (name and type) that may be chosen for use within that calendar. They are ordered by the sequence entered for that calculation on the GPA Calculation tab. Please see the Calendar GPA article for more information.
State Reported
If there are multiple GPA calculations entered, the State Reported checkbox allows users to determine which GPA calculation to use in state reporting.
