❏ Use SGR0050 to verify all courses offered in the district for the school year.
Grade Reporting > Maintenance > Master Schedule > District Schedule
❏ Ensure that the following fields are set correctly for all courses that will be included in grade averaging:
Graded Crs |
Select if the course is graded. NOTE: Grades can be posted for a non-graded course on the Student Maintenance pages. |
---|
❏ In the GA Table field:
Select the course type table which will be used to adjust the student’s grade for the course in grade averaging calculations. These course types are set up on Grade Reporting > Maintenance > Tables > Course Type.
NOTE: The default value for a course is R-Regular when added to the district master schedule. If R is not the correct grade average table for the course, the field must be updated.
This code is used in the grade averaging calculations, unless the student has a GA table code specified in his student record.
❏ Under GA Wgt:
Type the number of times the grade for the course is counted in grade averaging calculations.
If one course meets multiple periods, you may want to adjust the weight to the number of times the course meets.
Example:
If a student has seven one-period courses, his course factor is 7. If a student is in one course that meets three periods, and you enter the weight as 1, this student’s course factor is 5. However, If you enter a weight of 3 for the three-period course, the student’s course factor is 7.

Type 0 to exclude the course from grade averaging.
NOTE: The weight can be used to exclude a course from grade averaging. If a course has zero weight, it is excluded. Many campuses exclude PE, Band, Athletics, Office Aide, etc. from grade averaging calculations.
