The Final Grades Analysis Tool is designed to help school leaders and student support teams assess, in real time, how close students are to ending the school year passing as many courses as possible.  Note that all grade and summary counts displayed in the dashboard are current as of the previous calendar day, giving schools timely information to guide interventions.

Schools should utilize this tool to supplement the information available in the Final Grades Report, within SIS. While the Final Grades Report in SIS provides projections of students’ final grades, it does not indicate how far a student is from being on track. The Final Grades Analysis Tool builds on this report by providing student-level lists that show exactly how close each student is to passing each class, enabling teams to triage support more effectively. This makes the tool particularly valuable at the end of a semester for semester-based courses, or in Quarter 4 for yearlong course, when final outcomes are most critical. 

This Final Grades Analysis Tool is accessed by pasting an extract from SIS into the dashboard. Once populated, the dashboard highlights projected final grades, identifies the grade a student must earn to pass if they are currently failing or at risk, and offers real-time insight for targeted intervention.
