Get started with progress reports

Navigate to Progress reports from your homepage.
Group 9493.jpg
On the landing page, all report sets are grouped under Ongoing (editable) and Previous (shared), and can be filtered by grading period. Ongoing reports include those still in progress and requiring updates, while previous reports have already been shared with families and students.

Within each report set, you can see the grades you are mapped to, along with report statuses: pending, locked, shared, or excluded.
Note: You can only fill out or edit reports that are unlocked. Additionally, only admins have the ability to lock, unlock, or share a report with students and families.

Fill progress report

Progress report views

You can click the relevant grade to begin filling in reports using either of the two views:

Report section view

In this view, you can complete a specific section, such as subject/course reports or homeroom comments, for all students at once.

Student view

In this view, review an individual student’s complete report, including subject/course-level comments and ratings. However, you will be able to edit the sections only for the courses/subjects you teach.
Note: If students have been excluded from the progress report set, their names appear greyed out at the bottom of the list and you will not be able to access their reports. To restore access, ask your school admin to include them back in the report set.

Fill progress report sections

Within the progress report, the left pane provides an outline of all sections. You can scroll down to access specific sections or use the pane to navigate seamlessly between them.
Here’s a brief overview of each section in the progress report:
Cover sheet: This section includes key details about the report and is often the first page of the progress report. It is customized by your admin and is view-only for teachers.
Cover letter: This section provides a detailed introduction to the report, guiding families through their child’s progress. It is view-only and cannot be edited by teachers.
Progress summary: Shows a consolidated view of the student's performance across all subjects or courses. Each subject or course row displays the grades and scores enabled by your admin, such as overall score, grade point, credits, quality points, and a final grade. If your school has GPA or score and grade aggregation configured, aggregate rows including GPA, Total, and Average, appear at the bottom of the table.
You can use the gear icon under each subject or course to select or update the teacher's name shown. A comment box appears inline for the subjects or courses assigned to you; you can type your comment directly within the progress summary.
If homeroom advisor comments or attendance are configured to appear here, you will see those sections within the progress summary as well.
Assessment criteria description: Displays grade scale labels and descriptors to give families context for how students are assessed. It is configured by your admin and is view-only for teachers.
Subject/Courses: This section details a student’s performance in each subject/course, with options to edit ratings and add comments for the subjects/courses assigned to you. Depending on your admin’s configuration, a department tag and a level tag may appear next to the subject or course name; these are view-only and indicate the department the subject belongs to and the academic level the student is placed at for that subject or course.
Homeroom adviser comments: This section allows the homeroom adviser to provide personalized feedback on a student’s overall progress and development.
Attendance: This section displays a student’s attendance for the reporting period, with editing options depending on the settings configured by the admin.
Note: The sections visible in your progress reports depend on the report template set by your school admin. Depending on whether you are accessing a single-grading period report or a multi-grading period report, you will be able to view scores, grades, and modify ratings for either a single grading period or for all the grading periods mapped to the report set.

Progress summary

The progress summary shows a consolidated view of the student’s performance across all subjects or courses included in the report. What appears here is configured by your admin.
Note: Not all subjects or courses may appear in the progress summary. Your admin can include or exclude individual subjects or courses from this section independently of the individual subject or course report sections.
Grade summary table
Each subject or course row displays the grades and scores your admin has enabled in the template. If your admin has enabled level tags for the progress summary, the student’s level for that subject or course appears as a tag next to the subject or course name. Depending on your school’s setup, the following may appear as columns:
Overall score- the computed score for the subject or course based on all assessments recorded for the student. This appears only if your school has score-based grading enabled.
Final grade- the grade calculated using the primary grade scale mapped to the subject or course.
Category grade and category score- the grade and numeric score for each assessment category in your school (for example, Formative and Summative). These appear as separate columns. Category scores appear only if your school has score-based grading enabled for categories.
Grade point- the numeric point value associated with the student’s grade (for example, A = 4.0, B = 3.0). Appears if your school has GPA configured in grading setup.
Credits- the number of credits assigned to the subject or course. Appears if your school has Credits configured.
Quality points- calculated as Grade point multiplied by Credits, used to compute the student’s GPA. Appears if your school has GPA and Credits configured.
If your school has GPA or score and grade aggregation configured, aggregate rows appear at the bottom of the grade summary table. This may include a GPA row, as well as Total and Average rows for the relevant grade scales. The aggregate scores/grades are calculated automatically based on the grading configurations; you cannot edit them.
Note: In a multi-grading period report, aggregation can be configured differently for each grading period. As a result, which subjects or courses contribute to the Total or Average rows may vary across grading periods within the same report.
For subjects or courses assigned to you, you can update the overall score, category scores, and grade scale scores directly in this table. Any value you override is highlighted in yellow. You can reset it at any time to return to the automatically calculated score/grade.
Teacher comment
A comment box appears inline only for subjects or courses assigned to you. For subjects or courses taught by other teachers, only the teacher name is shown, no comment box appears.
Note: Comments and ratings you add or edit in the progress summary stay in sync with the individual subject or course report. Changes made in either section are reflected in both.
Note: Depending on the report template configured by your admin, additional custom comment fields may also appear within the progress summary for you to fill in.
Homeroom adviser comment
If the homeroom adviser comment is included in the progress summary, it appears as a dedicated section below the grades table. Only the assigned homeroom adviser can fill in this comment.
Attendance
if attendance is configured for Progress summary, you will see the attendance date range and number of operational days, an overall attendance row broken down by category (Present, Excused, Unexcused, Tardy), and a course-wise or subject-wise breakdown. This data is view-only.
Note: The attendance data shown within the progress summary is in sync with the standalone Attendance section. Both reflect the same data.

Subject/Courses

Each course or subject expands to show the individual report sections that you can view/edit:
Description
Covered units
Grade summary
Learning goals (Standards and Skills)
Teacher comment
Note: While you can see other subjects/courses the student is enrolled in, you can only edit reports for your own subject/course.

Description

Add a description to summarize what students have explored or achieved during the grading period. If your school has subscribed to Toddle AI, you can use it to instantly generate or refine the description.
Primary teachers selection
Below the subject or course, you will see the primary teachers assigned to it. By default, the primary teacher assigned (if any) under Settings > Class settings > Staff members will appear.
Group 6215.jpg
You can use the gear icon to update or change the teachers tagged to a specific course/subject directly from this section.
Once you’ve finalized your selection, you can choose to apply the changes to all students in your class or only to the current student whose progress report you are filling out. After making your choice, click Apply to finalise the changes.
Teacher assignments in progress reports stay in sync with class settings. When you update a teacher here for a class, the change is also reflected in the Class Settings > Staff members page. Conversely, if a teacher is updated in Class settings, the progress reports for that class update automatically if it is unlocked. The most recent change, whether made from the report or from class settings, always takes precedence and applies across all report sets for that class.

Covered units

Under Covered units, you can view and select the units relevant to the grading period using the gear icon.
In a course-based setup, all units tagged to the course will appear.
In a subject-based setup, all units from the different courses that the student is studying under that subject will show.
You can then choose to apply the changes to a specific student, multiple students (use the class filter to narrow the list), or all students across one or more of your classes. After making your choice, click Apply to finalize the changes.

Grade summary

Here, you can view the overall score and grade for your subject or course based on the grade scales enabled by your school admin in the report template. If your admin has enabled category grades in the report template, a breakdown of category grades and scores will also appear. These scores and grades are pulled from the evaluations done in the class. You will be able to edit these in the report if the permission is enabled.
Category scores are automatically calculated from class assessments based on the weighting assigned in the grading setup. These scores are combined to generate an overall score, based on the calculation method chosen by your school.
One or more grades may show based on the grade scales selected at the course/subject level and enabled in the report template.
If your school has GPA or credits configured, the grade summary may also include Grade point, Credits, and Quality points.
Clicking on an evaluation opens a pop-up where you can review the detailed evaluation history.

Standards

Click the gear icon beside Standards to view and manage which standards appear in the report. By default, the modal shows standards tagged to the course or subject you are currently filling the report for. You can search for a standard or browse the full list.
