2. From the menu list, select New.
3. Follow the standard instructions for Creating Assignments with a few changes:
4. For the new assignment title, use a unique title such as Transfer Grade P1 where the P1 refers to the grading period. This naming scheme will provide for a unique title which is required in Gradebook.
5. If you are using categories, you will need a transfer grade assignment for each one. Be sure to name the assignments to distinguish each category transfer assignment. For example E Transfer Grade P1 could be the name for the ELA category.
6. Select the Category if you are using categories.
7. The Copy to other Sections feature will work in the following conditions:
   • If the new assignment is not using a category and the 'copy to' section is also not using a category.
   • If the new assignment uses a category and the 'copy to' section also uses a category.
8. The Copy to feature will make the copies and will save the new assignment.
9. If you are not copying the new assignment to other sections, click Save.
10. You need to post an Exempt--E grade for all students by using the duplicate grade feature. This will prevent parents from thinking that their child has to make up a missing assignment.
