Report Card Score Types
Report Card Score Types are the grading scales that teachers use for
the report card. Your district may have pre-configured report card score
types that you are required to use. If the district allows it, Grade Book
enables you to create your own custom report card score types.
NOTE: Please note that
not all teachers may have the access or permissions to create their own
report card score types. Some teachers may be required to use only their
district’s default report card score types.
For example, if you teach kindergarten, first, or second grade, your
students’ report cards probably reflect their effort in each subject or
standard (such as Outstanding, Satisfactory, and Needs Improvement), rather
than a letter grade (A+ or B-) or a rubric score (4.0 or 3.5.) So, if
you have a student who has earned three scores on assignments graded with
a raw score scale (’10 of 10’, ‘9 of10’, and ’10 of 10’), and you are
using an Effort report card type, the students final (overall) grade displays
as Outstanding, rather than ’96.67%’ in Grade Book and on the student’s
report card.
Tasks
*New score types must be duplicated from existing score types. Once
duplicated you may rename and change ranges only.
