Assignments can be grouped into categories. If using weighted assignments, the categories are given weighted percentages. If using total points, the categories can group assignments for student progress reports.
Categories can be unique for each class so the categories must be set-up or copied in each class section.
Categories listed will be available when adding assignments.
Note: The categories can be changed, but must be changed district-wide. The recommendation is to make the assignments fit into these categories if at all possible. To request a category be added, contact the technology department.
