Grading starts with setup records, then moves into class gradebooks. Teachers enter scores for assigned classes. Reviewers approve submissions and amendments when your school requires review.

​
Setup checklist

Create these before teachers start grading:
  • Grading periods for each grade entry window.
  • Grading schemes for formulas, weights, and computation rules.
  • Grading scales for labels and passing bands.
  • Transmutation scales when your school converts raw scores into final grade values.
Grading scales and transmutation scales are different. A grading scale explains the final grade. A transmutation scale converts one score form into another.

​
Gradebook workflow

1

Open the class gradebook

Open the class and select Gradebook.
2

Create grade items

Add quizzes, exams, projects, recitations, or other assessed work. Assign each item to the correct grading period or component.
3

Enter scores

Enter scores directly in the grid or use bulk entry for one grade item.
4

Publish when ready

Publish grade items when students should see their scores.
5

Lock and submit

Lock the period when entry is complete, then submit grades for review if your school uses approvals.

​
Grade submissions

A grade submission sends a class, period, or defined scope to reviewers. Reviewers can approve, reject, or return it. Approval may post grades when the submission reaches the final review step.

​
Unlocks and amendments

Use the right correction path:

​
Grade amendments

A grade amendment changes an official grade with a reason and review trail. It should include the student, class, current grade, proposed grade, and correction reason.
Do not use amendments for ordinary score entry. Amendments are for correcting official grades after approval or posting.
