Sample Reports
There are a variety of documents you can create using PowerGrade's
reporting features. See the following examples for letters and attendance
grids created using PowerGrade.
Create letters to give positive feedback to parents or to warn parents of falling
grades. You can create either type of letter at any time in the term.
How to Create a Positive Feedback Letter
The following example generates a report only for those students receiving
a total grade percentage of 90-100%. However, you can choose a different range.
- Choose an available class from the Classes menu. The class page
for the selected class appears.
- Choose Reports > Create.
- On the Create Report page, select "Individual student report"
on the "Basic report info" tab.

Feedback Letter.

and which assignments to include.

opening in the report header.

closing in the report footer.

How to Create a Blank Attendance Grid
A blank attendance grid is helpful for substitute teachers. You
can print the report and have the substitute teacher use it to take
attendance. Alternatively, use the blank attendance grid to take
attendance when you are not at your computer, such as during a field
trip or Physical Education class. When you return to your computer,
you must record the attendance in PowerGrade.

for the selected class appears.

on the "Basic report info" tab.

Grid.

appear and what information to include in each.

in the report header.
- Click the Footer tab, and enter comment codes and text for the closing
in the report footer.

on the roster.
