Timing and Activities at the Office – Report Card Setups Copies from year to year but important to understand –GRE.204 Define Report Card Subjects and Order per report card per grade level. Also indicate allowable grades for each reporting period for this subject (GRD.270H). Note that no mark or comment value means subject will not print on report card for that student anyway We think GRD.270H although optional is REALLY important as it will force teachers to input correct values!! Elementary Rep Card Can be updated anytime.

Timing and Activities at the Office – Report Card Setups Contd –GRE.205 Assign learning outcome(s) per subject, section, and format This means that if a new learning outcome is expected for say Grade 1 English it would mean changing every teachers EN1 (Section1,2,3) and for all applicable reporting periods R1,R2,R3. District is responsible to define all usable outcomes. Schools can select from a valid list. Often Outcome acceptable input values are different from marks, hence ability to limit input to a particular grade table (GRD.270h) Elementary Rep Card Can be updated anytime.
