Mark Reporting Detail Page

Use this page to view or change mark reporting information for the selected course-section.

You can change the attempted and earned credits for the course on this page. Mark Reporting allows credit changes at either the course level or marking period level. An administrator at your building selected how credit overrides will be entered based on the reporting needs of your district. If credit fields display in the Marks/Credits/Comments/Absences panel, then you must make credit changes at the marking period level, and the course credit will be equal to the sum of the marking period credits.

If course competencies are associated with the course, then this page displays buttons to view the report card marks or competencies.

Marks - Displays the report card marks, comments, and absences.
Competencies - Displays the student's marks for the competency groups related to the course. For more information on the fields that display in Competencies mode, refer to the Competencies Page.
