-===== Integrade End of Year Export Instructions – Middle (no exam) =====
-These instructions detail how teachers export grades from Integrade at the end of the year. The directions differ from the regular six weeks because at the end of the year you have the Sixth Six Weeks grade, a 2nd Semester grade, and a Year grade. The 2nd semester grade is an average of the 4th six weeks, 5th six weeks and 6th six weeks. The Year grade is the average of first and second semester.
-Note: These directions assume the default gradebook setup for the “Unused” or “Average” type and “Year Average” type set are not changed and instructions were followed for ALL previous six weeks. Please use the “Checking for Integrade Errors – Elem & Middle” before using the End of Year directions to make sure your gradebook is setup correctly.
