Secondary Level Report Card Templates • A separate template has been created for each Quarter! • Remind teachers to complete Final Grade Completion Process • Run Report Card Template for Grades 10-12 students when teachers have checked final grades and comments in their gradebooks. • You could print these reports on School Letterhead

  11. Power School Reports Run Trials as soon as possible so that we may detect potential errors sooner rather than later! • Do not make any changes to the report templates! • Delete any templates that you are not using.

  14. Troubleshooting Report Errors Known Error: • If a student is dropped from a course and then enrolled in the same course the final grade will not print on the Individual Student Report. • Solution: Send request to Sondra to fix

  15. Troubleshooting Report Errors Overlapping Enrolments: • The Fix Enrollments link will only work if the student is enrolled in overlapping courses. • Check also to ensure that the course Entry Date is before the Exit Date

  16. Troubleshooting Report Errors Report Error: Reports will not open in your Report Queue. This is an Adobe Reader error. Solution: Submit a Helpdesk ticket and Foxit Reader will be installed on your computer which will allow you to read the PDF.
