The Edit Report Card Grades page allows administrators to review and modify report card grades for individual students. While grades are typically calculated automatically from assignments entered by teachers, there are situations where an administrator may need to update a student's final report card record.

This feature is commonly used to correct grading errors, update final grades after an appeal or review, modify earned credits, or enter grades that were approved outside the normal grading workflow. Any changes made here are reflected in the student's report card and other academic records that use the updated grade information.

Before You Begin

Before editing report card grades, ensure that:

• The appropriate School Year and Marking Period are selected.
• The student is enrolled in the selected course section.
• Grade scales and grading preferences have already been configured in the Settings Guide.
• You have the required administrative permissions to modify report card grades.

Open the Edit Report Card Grades Page

1. Navigate to Grades > Administration.
2. The Edit Report Card Grades tab opens by default.
3. Search for the student using the search bar or Advanced Search.
4. Click the student's name to open the grade editing page.

The student's academic summary is displayed, including:

• Student photo
• Student ID
• Grade level
• Weighted GPA
• Unweighted GPA
• Available marking periods

Select the required Marking Period from the drop-down list to view the student's report card grades for that term.

Understanding the Grade Details

Each course displays its report card information in a single row.

The available fields include:

Edit a Report Card Grade

1. Locate the course you want to update.
2. Click the Edit (pencil) icon.
3. Update one or more of the editable fields, such as:
   • Percentage
   • Letter Grade
   • Course Category
   • Credits Attempted
   • Credits Earned
4. Review the changes.
5. Click Update to save the revised report card grade.

The updated information becomes part of the student's official academic record.

Delete a Report Card Grade

If a report card grade was created incorrectly, you can remove it.

1. Locate the course.
2. Click the Delete icon.
3. Confirm the deletion.

Use this option carefully, as deleting report card grades may affect GPA calculations, transcripts, graduation progress, and report cards.

Restore a Previous Grade

If a report card grade has been modified incorrectly, the History icon allows administrators to review and restore a previous version of the grade.

This helps maintain an audit trail and recover historical grade information when necessary.

Understanding GPA

The student profile displays two GPA values:

• Weighted GPA considers additional weight assigned to honors, AP, IB, or other advanced courses.
• Unweighted GPA treats all courses equally regardless of course difficulty.

These values are recalculated automatically based on the student's report card grades and grading configuration.

Best Practices

• Verify grade changes before saving.
• Update both the percentage and corresponding letter grade when necessary.
• Ensure credit values accurately reflect the student's completed coursework.
• Use this page only for approved administrative grade changes rather than routine teacher grading.
• Review GPA after significant grade modifications to confirm academic records remain accurate.
