3. Let’s Explore Some Common Problem Areas

4. All students in my class have 4’s! • Ignore the “Final Grade” column. • It has no impact on the students’ grades

5. The grades don’t calculate correctly or I have decimals that show up! • Make sure the possible points is set to 4 at ALL TIMES! (even if the max. score was a Level 3) • Exception: Set as 3 points for Conduct & Work Habits

6. There are blanks in the final grades tab! • Make sure the grades have been “recalculated using the standards score”.

7. I “recalculated” but I still have blanks! • There is a problem calculating the mode. • The teacher must enter the grade manually.
