 Additional Information!  If a teacher actually selected INC as a term grade in their gradebook, it will also need to be stored as such in Historical Grades. This will hinder a student from being on the Honor Roll when it is calculated in PowerSchool. It will also show up on report cards and transcripts as INC if corrected in Historical Grades. Additional Information!  If a teacher actually selected INC as a term grade in their gradebook, it will also need to be stored as such in Historical Grades.

 A student shouldn't have an INC as a final grade for a previous year once a new school year begins, so it would be best to address these as early as possible. In situations where the student has been given more time to complete grades, be sure to note that it needs to be updated at the beginning of the new school year. Exceptions regarding this procedure should be made at the school level. A student shouldn't have an INC as a final grade for a previous year once a new school year begins, so it would be best to address these as early as possible.

 +In an email jrhea sent on 5/7/24:

 +It has been brought to my attention that the GPA Calculations are set to be excluded for some credit bearing (F1) final grades in Historical Grades.  In researching this, I found that the store grades process automatically changes it to be excluded when the grade stored is BLANK. If manually updating blank grades in Historical Grades, all applicable fields below must be updated.
 +
 +Grade
 +GPA points
 +Percent
 +Earned credit hours
 +GPA Calculations to Include
 +
 +Note that once you update all of these fields GPA's will need to be recalculated.
 +
 +This is not typically an issue because final grades usually aren't blank in the teachers' gradebooks.  However, R7VA student grades aren't entered in teacher gradebooks because the teachers aren't WCS employees.  With this being the case, when storing grades for the schools the blank grades get stored as such causing the other fields to be blank as well.  If you need assistance double checking your students let us know.  We will be glad to help.
 +
 +Also, keep in mind that when you manually enter grades, whether current school or previous school grades for transfer students, you must include the 4 digit Credit Type (i.e., for school year 2023-24 you should enter 2023).  I went ahead and corrected these for you according to the terms listed for the historical grade.
 +Thanks,
 +Jennifer
