ProgressBook: Run Report Cards

Enter Report Card Grades by Class
The Report Card forms sent to students' parents are custom designed by the GradeBook system
manager, but teachers enter the grades that appear on these forms. You can enter grades by class or
individual student. If your report card has a large number of assessments, you may want to select
students individually to enter grades. 

1. On the Teacher Home Page or the Class Dashboard, click Enter Report Cards.

2. On the Report Card Entry screen, select the appropriate class or class group in the Class list. If
you accessed this screen from the Class Dashboard, you do not have to select the appropriate
class or class group.

3. Click Show All Students under the Class list or select the student you wish to enter grades.

4. Select the correct report card in the Rpt list. {should be automatically selected, but confirm}
Only the report card(s) associated with the students in the class or in the classes included in the
class group display in the list.

5. Click the check box above the current quarter.

6. Click to automatically calculate and populate the grade using the marks previously entered in the
grade book. (= sign)

You can click on a student's name to open the Student Progress window, which displays
assignments grouped by assessment or assignment type, individual assignment weights, marks,
missing, late or excluded assignments, if any, and comments. This information can help you in
assigning/adjusting grades as needed.



For standards-based report cards (aka skills-based), GradeBook automatically populates the grade
for each assessment. If an assessment grade remains blank, no assignments were mapped to
that assessment during the grading period. You will need to manually input those grades.

7. To override the automatically calculated report card grade, select the grade and change it.

8. If you have to manually enter assessments for each student, click the Assessment name to view
a list of valid codes and respective descriptions.

9. Close the Valid Marks window.

Elementary teachers can only add comments on the ATTENDANCE section. Find the icon to enter
comments up to 3,000 characters.
10. Click Save.
A red outline appears around the field if the grade has not been saved.
