The Grades tool collects grades for a student, grouped by enrollment and course. Each grading task and/or standard aligned to the course is listed. Calculated GPAs are also displayed at the top of the screen.

Posted grades and In-Progress grades display. In-Progress grades are calculated based on assignment scores and display in yellow grid squares. Posted grades are finalized grades that have been posted by a teacher or other staff member and display in bold in blue grid squares.

Where Do Grades Come From?

In-Progress grades are calculated based on the student's assignment scores. Grades are calculated based on the Grade Calc Options established by the teacher, for the course, or the course master.

Grades are posted by the teacher via the Grade Book, the Progress Monitor, or the Post Grades tool. Other staff members at the school, such as counselors or administrative staff, may also record grades for students using the Grading by Task or Grading by Student tools in Scheduling.

View GPAs

GPAs (Grade Point Averages) are displayed in the section at the top of the Grades tool. A GPA is only displayed if a value has been calculated for it. See the GPA Calculations in Campus article for more information about how GPAs are calculated.

For Cumulative and Custom GPAs, the student's class rank is displayed below the GPA.

The GPAs listed are dependent on the user's tool rights.

Custom GPAs must be enabled on the Calendar GPA Calculation Setup tool. If a Custom GPA is enabled, the Rolling Cumulative GPAs do not display.

All reports for the calendar are listed.

When a student has multiple enrollments in the district, users (when assigned proper tool rights to Additional Enrollment Grades) are able to print report cards for the other enrollments. Report cards for each enrollment are organized by Calendar Name.
