Creating Report Cards - MS/HS

Before report cards are created, it is a good idea to check to make sure all teachers have finalized their grade books. Only finalized grades will be on report cards.

Go to Guidance…Open Grade Books
Choose the term and grading period you wish to review

all the grade books that have not yet been finalized will be listed

In this view, you can then click the email icon to send an automated email to the teacher reminding them to finalize their grade books. Once the email has been sent, the email icon will turn to a green checkmark to let you know that the teacher has already been emailed.

Once grade books are all finalized, report cards can be run in the Guidance…Report Cards view by clicking the “Create Report Cards” button.

Enter the settings for how you wish for report cards to be run and what information you want on them. If you choose create them for a homeroom, you will be able to enter in the specific homeroom teacher. If you choose to create them for selected students, you will be able to checkmark the specific students or grade level you wish to run them for.

Choose the term and grading period (how many grading periods of attendance are completed). Attendance can be shown by period (the number of absences and tardies per period) or the cumulative total of days absent and tardies.

Then select if you wish for attendance and GPA/Rank to be on the report cards. Progress average is the GPA for that grading period. Remember only end of term grades are figured into overall GPA.

If you are including class rank at the end of the term make sure you have created Class Rank/GPA so the updated rank is on the report cards.

Next decide how to sort the report cards and whether you want percents or open TBR balance reminders on them.

Once report cards have been created, you can select the students and publish or print report cards using the buttons at the top of the view.

When you Publish Report cards you will have the option of including text to be in the email that is set to parents letting them know that report cards are available to view in Harmony Family Access.

Printing report cards will generate a PDF of selected students and they will be sorted based on the preferences you choose.

Remember you can generate award lists using the Awards button in the Report Cards view

Make sure you have updated your system profile to the new term/grading period. The term/grading period should be updated on the first day of each new grading period
