Adjusting Current (Term, Semester, Final Year) Student Grades

Occasionally adjusting a student's current semester or current term grade might be necessary. This help applies to adjusting the current term, current semester, or final year grade. The marked radio button setting determines which grade is displayed.

If the grade is being adjusted to for the special needs of the student (for example special education), enter the letter Y for Yes with the SetUp Menu- Student Names selection to indicate if term, semester, or final grades have been adjusted. Printouts will display an asterisk * with the term, semester, and final letter grades.

If a percentage, letter grade, or special grade is entered, this grade will override the grade that the student actually earned. This new grade will be printed on all reports for the student and used in all calculations and grade distributions. The student point totals are not changed. If no change is made, the actual grade the student earned will be printed on all reports. Use the arrow keys to move between columns and rows.

If the Grade button is clicked and a student is highlighted, that student's current term and semester grade will be displayed. The edit box must be blank to calculate the actual grade. Clicking the OK button removes this window so you can continue adjusting grades.

If EXcused, WP (Withdrew Passing) or (WF) Withdrew Failing is entered, individual reports will not be printed for that student.

If semester and year supplemental grades are issued, the supplemental letter grades (no percentages) are entered with this menu selection.

The location used for the Year override was used for other data in earlier DOS versions of Gradebook Power. These left over numbers and letters can be cleared by using the Utility menu | Advanced features selection and entering Option CYG
