Here is a brief overview for using the Infinite Campus Grade Book for CCS Teachers.
Log in:
Go to www.ccsoh.us and select Staff then the Infinite Campus link. Use the same username and password as your email. Every time you change your login it will change for Infinite Campus as well.
- Click on the App Switcher (looks like 9 little boxes) and select Campus Instruction.
- You will also see an option here that says Campus Community; if you select this you have access to news, forums where you can search or post a specific question, and also the knowledge base, which includes videos, tutorials and virtual labs.
- In the top right verify the current year and school. The log off button is also in the top right of the screen.
Set Preferences
Before proceeding, it is a good practice to create your account preferences. These options can be changed at any time throughout the school year.
Grade Book Selections
- Select the Current Term (Q1, Q2, Q3, Q4)
- Select the Section (Class) you want to work with.
- Select the Task (Quarter, Interim, Exam or Final)
The task for Exam and Final will only appear in Terms they can be entered. For a full year course, the Exam and Final tasks will appear when Q4 is selected.
The following Options are available for each class section.
+ Add - Click this button to create an Assignment for the Section selected
Sort - The Sort Button allows you to change the order of the assignment in the section.
Filter - The Filter Button allows you to hide and show Student or Assignment specific criteria.
Assignment Defaults
Assignment Defaults allow teachers to create templates for assignments, with options for Section Groups, Date, Grading Setup, and other assignment elements. Defaults help teachers save time when creating assignments with options that they use often.
A teacher can have multiple defaults set. One default can be set to apply automatically whenever assignments are created.
Assignment Marks
Assignment marks allow teachers to create their own grading thresholds, which convert scores entered into percents. Assignment marks are applied to a single assignment at a time. This tool could be useful in instances when you want to create a custom set of scores for an assignment that should have a numeric effect on student score. Teachers also have access to sets of Marks created by their district. Ownership of marks is indicated in the list.
For example, an art teacher may want to score projects with a letter grade rather than a point value. The assignment marks would then convert that letter grade into a numeric percentage for grade calculation.
Categories
Categories are like the folders that assignments are sorted into, collecting related assignments. 
Categories must exist before you can create assignments.

If all students are not in the correct section, or students display who are not in your class, notify your school scheduler as soon as possible.
Do not wait until the last day or two of the open grading window to enter grades. Allow time to resolve any issues that may occur.
