Board Policy 5421 states that the final grade for students in grades 6-12 are to be based on quality points. There is a tool in Infinite Campus for middle and high school teachers and administrators to use to determine if the final grades posted in Infinite Campus are in compliance with Board policy. |
You must be in Campus Tools to access the Quality Points Calculator. If you are in Campus Instruction when you log in, follow the instructions listed here to switch back and forth between these two modules.
PATH: Index > Grading & Standards > Quality Points Calc.
Leave the Run Update field on No to generate and review the report before making changes.
IMPORTANT: Do Not Select YES at this time ... run the report and review first. |
The Quality Points Calc. reports only students with a discrepancy between the posted final grade and the final grade based on quality points. Students with no differences will not appear on the report.
NOTE: With the parameter Run Update set to "No", there will be no change to the student's grade.
Missing quarter grades have an impact on the quality points calculations. If you find quarter grades missing for any of your students who are not late arrivals, work with your building principal to resolve the issue. |
PATH: Index > Grading & Standards > Quality Points Calc.
Run Update: Select Yes from the drop-down menu. Final grades will update with the New Final Grade as indicated on the report.
IMPORTANT: Selecting Yes from the drop-down menu will run the Quality Points Calculations and update all grades for EVERY student in the selected course sections where the final grade based on quality points differs from the final posted grade. If you have even ONE student that you do not wish to update using the update tool, you’ll need to update the remaining students individually (see below). |
The report will generate again with a list of the students with Quality Points to be updated. However, if you look at the grades of students on the report, or generate the Grades Report, you will see that the final grades have been updated. If you generate the Quality Points Calc. again, selecting No in the Run Update field, there will be 0 results.
Final grades can be updated for students individually in Campus Instruction, using the Post Grade function.
You must be in Campus Instruction to access the Post Grades module. If you are in Campus Tools, follow the instructions listed here to switch back and forth between these two modules.
