This program will provide the user a way to edit grading periods, semesters and final grades by teacher and course.

  • If the course is marked as a one semester course in the Master Schedule Editor, the appropriate grading period columns will be grayed out and therefore, not editable.
  • The Deny column, in the Grading Period Lock program, will deny the course/section from being selected. When Deny is checked, the section is excluded from the teacher's course selection for Post Grade Master.
