Reminder - Clear out Progress Report comments before Report Card printing

Teachers,

Now that the 3rd marking period comments have been sent in Progress Reports, you will probably want to clear them out prior to the printing of report cards. Most of the time those comments will no longer apply. In the beginning of this school year you needed to go into each child's quarter grade and open the comment and delete it. Since we had the upgrade in December there is an easier way to mass delete comments for all the children. Open up Fill Final Grades by right clicking on the quarter final grade for any student in the class with a comment (little blue "c".) Once you have Fill Final Grades open,first click in "replace all", then click on the "Manual Override" box and last at the bottom click in "Comment." Delete the comment in the box and click "Ok." All comments will be deleted and you will see the little red "i" in the grade column. This just shows that an override took place. You are then able to use the Score Inspector to add any new comments needed for 3rd marking period or any marking period of the school year.

Do I need to remove the comments from Progress Report time if they no longer apply before report card printing?
