***Important Tip***
When viewing your child's grades for a particular class, it's important to click on the link at the bottom of the list of assignments titled, "View by Assignment Type."  Teachers for grades 3-12 will be using weighted categories or assignment types.  The two types are academic achievement and academic practice.  Clicking this link will show you your child's average for each weighted assignment category as well as their total average for the course.  If your child is struggling in a particular category, this allows you to see categories of weakness and assist in that area.
