How-to

Assigning Points to a Single Student

  1. On the Points System screen, click the Find button and browse to the desired student.
  2. A screen showing weekly summary points will be displayed.
    • Items in red are the deductions calculated due to discipline or attendance data for the week. These are summarized in the column labeled Week Neg (Negative).
    • Items not in red are the points earned. These are summarized in the column Week Pos (Positive).
    • On the far left are the Total Pos (Positive) points earned. It is a cumulative amount that builds from week to week.
    • NOTE: Positive points can only be earned when there are no negative points. In other words, if the student has a showing of -50 points, no positive points will be added until the -50 are “made up”.
  3. Adjust button: To manually add or deduct points for the current student, click the Adjust button. In the Points cell, enter an amount. To make it a deduction (negative) amount, click the “+/-“ button. Next, enter a description such as “Caught being good”, “Honor Roll”, etc… Click Save to store the adjustment.
  4. Purchase button: To record a “Purchase” of an Item, click the Purchase button. Next, click in the first cell and a listing of items will be displayed. Click to select an item, and then indicate the quantity of items by clicking in the Qty cell. When done, click the Purchase button.
  5. Print Stmt (Statement) button: Click to print a statement of purchases and adjustments performed on the student.
  6. Print button: Click to print the information displayed on the Weekly tab of the student.
