Creating Transcripts

If you are following our calendar schedule, it’s time to produce a mid-year transcript. You can create transcripts inside your Parent/Teacher Account.

Transcripts are an academic record of work completed, the credits earned for each course, and the course’s mid-year grade.

The Parent/Teacher Account has a transcript tool that’s really easy to use. It lets parents enter the official grade for a course and it will automatically calculate credits and the GPA over all courses. The transcript tool highly flexible and will also let you include courses from other sources, any state testing information, and comments.

This old, blog post shows how the Transcript feature works.
