Or, if you make changes to the **Tot Credits**, **Credit Lvl**, **GA Table**, or **GA Wgt** fields for prior years in the District Master Schedule, you must run the Historical Grade Averaging utility, as those changes will affect the student grade averaging and class ranking for that school year.\\ |
