Under Semester Grades: End-of-semester information includes the following: |
|||
Exam |
Enter the student's semester exam grade. If the student has a pre-posted exam grade, it is displayed and cannot be changed.
|
||
Working Average |
The student's working semester average is displayed, based on the data entered up to this point. The value is recalculated every time you access the page, click Calculate Semester Averages, or save grades.
NOTE: If a cycle grade is blank, the semester grade is not calculated. |
||
Override |
This field allows you to override a student's working semester average with a different grade (e.g., if the student's working cycle average is 69, you may give the student a cycle grade of 70, depending on district policy). You can also type N/G to assign an override grade of no grade. |
||
Posted Average | The field is blank until a semester grade is posted. Then, the posted semester grade is displayed. |
||
For campuses that do not have semester exams every semester (e.g., a four-semester campus that has semester exams at the end of the second and fourth semesters), the semester averages are only calculated if there is a semester exam for the current semester.
• The Exam field is displayed.
• The Exam field is not displayed. |
Once saved, failing grades are highlighted in pink.
Save and print:
You must save your grades before you exit this page. Otherwise, your changes will be lost.
IMPORTANT: Saving grades is different from posting grades. You can only post your grades once at the end of the cycle, as described below; however, you must save any changes every time you visit this page. This allows you to leave this page and return as you enter cycle grade data.

Post semester grades:
❏ After you enter semester grades data for the course, review your input carefully, and save all changes.

Select courses to mark grades as Ready to Post |

❏ Click Continue.
The page reloads, and a message is displayed indicating that the cycle grades were successfully sent to be posted. The message “[READY]” is displayed in the Course-Section drop-down list next to the course.
You can submit your grades more than one time if you make a change shortly after mark the grades as ready to post; however, once the data is posted by the campus administrator, you cannot change any data.
After grades are posted and the cycle is closed, you can make changes to the grades and view the working cycle average (e.g., for a student who missed the last few days of a cycle due to illness); however, you cannot post any changes. Instead, print your changes and submit your printout to the campus administrator.
NOTE: The campus administrator can run a report to determine which teachers have posted their grades and which teachers have not yet posted their grades.
