Creating Progress Reports

1.

Configure your progress report options by making selections on the Progress Reports tab of the Reports setup window.

2.

Select Progress Reports from the Reports menu.

3.

The Select Students dialog will appear. Use the Student List Filter to affect which students are displayed. Select the students and subjects you want to report on by placing check marks next to their names.

4.

If you have enabled Comments & Suggestions, the Select Improvements dialog will appear after the Select Students dialog closes.

5.

A progress report will be created for each student you selected. Use the controls on the toolbar or the menus to browse, edit, save, or print the progress reports.

6.

If you need to reconfigure the reports, you can select Report Setup, Select Students, or Select Comments from the Setup menu. After making changes, Grade Point will regenerate the set of progress reports.

Manipulating Progress Reports



The progress reports toolbar contains the most common choices for manipulating progress reports. Other choices are contained on the menus, as well.

Editing Reports

Perhaps while viewing a student's report you will feel that you need to add a personal note to the parent related to something in the report. Grade Point allows you to edit the content of the progress reports directly from the progress reports window. This is a powerful feature—one that can save you from having to regenerate reports or possibly even help you avoid having to create a separate communication to the parent.

Saving Report Sets

The ability to save and retrieve a set of reports means that you are able to save a snapshot of exactly what was reported at a particular time. If you ever need to go back and produce a copy of a particular report, you can, without generating a new report that will contain information that wasn't yet recorded at the time the report in question was created.
