*NOTE* When selecting EOC, additional options are displayed to narrow down the search to pinpoint information. These will all affect the Gradebook.

Do not merge into grades - By selecting this option, scores will only be loaded to the testing database and not affect your existing grades in the gradebooks. This is not recommended for historical scores.

Calculate district grades for course re-testers - By selecting this option, students that are retesting a course with a valid section number will receive a district score. This is not recommended for historical scores.

Adjust for current student schedules - By selecting this option, the import process will attempt to locate a valid current section on records that are missing or contains an invalid section number.

Test Date - Select the test date that the student took the test. If the file already has a test date included in the file (Ex: ACT), then that date will display in the Test Score Editor Test Date column. Otherwise, the date the user entered will display in the column.

File - Choose the file that you are importing, from the location it is stored/saved in your computer. Depending upon the test to be imported, acceptable file extensions include .csv, .txt and other character files but never a .pdf file. After selecting, the name of the file will display to the right of the Choose File button. After the file is imported, you will get a confirmation pop up screen of the data being imported, created, and updated.
