Grade Level

Student grade level link

Student grade level is a first-class entity in SameGoal. If a district has a demographics integration with their SIS, grades will be added and updated automatically based on information from the SIS. However, grade levels can also be updated and merged manually in SameGoal if needed.

If changes are made in SameGoal but are not made in the SIS, changes will be overwritten by the nightly demographics integration.

Grade count link

Not only can grades be updated and merged by going to Settings > Grade Level, but this page will also display a count of students in each grade.

When a user clicks on the grade count, they will be directed to the Students / create new page filtered to show all students in the selected grade.

The grade count includes deleted students in the total, but when the link is clicked, the filtered student list will not include deteled students.

To assign a grade to a student:

1. Navigate to the student's Basics tab, only available to administrative users.
2. Click on the Grade dropdown.
3. Select a grade.
4. Click Update student.

The student's assigned grade will be visible on their Details tab, but it will only be editable from the Basics page.
