Frequently Asked Questions
Can I manage multiple students in one homeschool account?
Yes. The online gradebook allows parents to manage multiple students from a single login. Each child’s courses, assignments, and grades are organized separately, while parents can still view everything in one place.
How does the online gradebook handle recording grades for different subjects?
The system makes recording grades very simple for each subject, whether it’s math, science, reading, or project-based work. Parents can enter scores for assignments, quizzes, and activities, keeping all records organized throughout the school year.
Can I use custom grade scales instead of traditional grades?
Yes. The online gradebook supports custom grade scales, so homeschool parents can measure progress in a way that best reflects their teaching style. You can set up pass/fail, letter grades, percentages, or other scales that best fit your homeschool program.
Can I calculate average grades automatically?
Yes. The online gradebook calculates average grades for each subject or assignment type. This saves parents time and provides a clear picture of how a student is progressing across different areas.
How does the online gradebook show student performance over time?
Parents can track student performance with reports that combine assignments, attendance, and notes. These reports highlight areas of strength and where extra support might be needed, helping parents adjust lessons and goals throughout the year.
