Attention all secondary teachers! Remember to set up your categories and percentages for each of your 2nd Semester gradebooks! Even though your 1st Semester gradebooks are set, you will need to make sure that 2nd semester gradebooks are ready to go as well. Once the first progress report period of the 2nd semester ends, you will no longer be able to change your categories and percentages. If categories and percentages are not set, your students' progress report, report card and Family Access grades will show as a zero.
If you need help setting up your categories follow the steps below.
1. Open one of your 2nd semester gradebooks and click the Categories tab.
2. On the next screen, click the Add/Edit Categories button.
3. Click the Unselect All button to remove the checks from all the categories.
4. Place a check next to each category that will be used in your gradebook.
5. Enter the percent (weight) for each category that will be used in your gradebook. Be sure that the
total percent adds up to exactly 100.
6. Click Save.
7. Do this for each one of your gradebooks! Do this before the end of the first progress report period
of the 2nd semester. Once the first progress report period ends you will no longer be able to set up
your categories and percentages.
