GradeQuick 2009 Procedural ChangesAttendance/Report Cards

Teachers are no longer required to enter term absence totals into the Homeroom class. Attendance will be pushed into GradeQuick from the Student Information System (SIS aka AS400, Crosspoint, JWalk) and the Progress Report Card will pull from there.

No more T1 (T2, T3, T4) Days Present, Days Absent, and Days Tardy to be filled in.

Teachers should not enter/remove attendance information in GradeQuick. Teachers should make attendance changes in the SIS and wait for an update.

ATTENDANCE WILL STILL BE RECORDED DAILY IN SIS.

The “Days Present” will no longer be reported on the Progress Report Card.

This is a result of the auto-push to the Progress Report Card.

Only Homeroom classes will be regularly updated from the SIS.

Teachers will add students to class membership in Edline for Reading, Language Arts, Social Studies, Science, and Math.

This will allow teachers to control which students they assign grades to in subject areas rather than the Master Schedule without interfering with “minutes” scheduled.

Teachers will NOT directly add students to GradeQuick. Once a student is added to the Edline class membership they will automatically appear in GradeQuick.

Teachers will NOT delete students directly from GradeQuick. Once a student is deleted from the Edline class membership they will automatically be dropped in GradeQuick.

Dropped students may be hidden in GradeQuick WARNING: Do not delete students from GradeQuick directly or you will lose all their grades!!
