  • If an assignment grade has been dropped, the message “dropped” is displayed next to the grade.
  • If an assignment grade has been excluded, the message “excluded” is displayed in place of the grade.
  • If an assignment is missing, the message “missing” is displayed in place of the grade.
  • If an assignment is incomplete, the message “incomplete” is displayed in place of the grade.
  • If the student is withdrawn from the course, the message “(withdrawn)” is displayed next to the course title.

STANDARDS-BASED GRADING: If the course uses the standards-based type of grading, assignments are associated with specific standards. For these courses, the Standard Scores heading is displayed in the table. For each assignment, all associated standards and grades are displayed. Note that assignments may have multiple standards. Also, an assignment may be associated with more than one standard, so you may see the same standard for multiple assignments. The grade for the course is calculated from the scores for the standards, not the assignments.

Some districts use the name SKILLS-REFERENCED GRADING to refer to this grading type.
