The Statistical Reports program lets you perform four actions:
• Print Honor Roll Reports
• Update students' career credits and grade point averages
• Print Class Rank Reports
• Print Eligibility Reports
Using Honor Rolls
This portion of the program calculates students' grade point averages for one marking
period at a time. Honor roll reports may be generated based on these averages and other
criteria based on students' grades in this marking period. Honor roll lists are written to
the disk so that the report card report writer program is able to print on the report card
which honor roll the student made. Note that:
• Up to FIVE honor rolls may be defined.
• Each honor roll can be viewed on the window before printing. While being viewed,
students may be deleted from the honor roll for any reason with a single keystroke.
• The honor roll printouts are customizable: Each of the following may be printed or
omitted from the printouts: rank, name, ID number, average, # of incompletes, # of
courses, # of F's, # of courses used to calculate the honor roll and two optional data
base fields. For example, you could choose to print only rank and social security
number (which would be an optional data base field) so that you could post students'
averages and only they would know which average was theirs.
• Honor rolls may also be based on having no grades lower than a specific grade.
Different limits may be entered for MAJOR and MINOR courses. For example, you
could specify that students must have all “A's” in major courses but are allowed one
“B” in a minor course. See “Priority” on page 2-7 for an explanation of the
differences between major and minor courses.
