Clear Grade Averaging and Class Ranking

Grade Reporting > Utilities > Clear Grd Avg and Class Ranking

This utility clears grade averaging and class ranking data from student records for the current school year only.

The utility is not campus-specific; it deletes all current year grade averaging records in the district for the grade level and credit level selected. Therefore, if two campuses exist with the same grade level (e.g., two middle schools), the utility deletes data at both campuses.

The utility can be used by a middle school that runs grade averaging for credit level H courses only, if its policy does not include courses taken at middle school. You can use the utility to delete the middle school students’ grade average row for credit level H.

WARNING: Use extreme caution when using the utility. It is recommended that you set menu-level security for this menu item in ASCENDER Security Administration.
