Define Grade Ranges for a Course
Each school or district has a default set of grade ranges, which map letter grades to numbers in the system. These ranges are chosen by school administrators and are configured by the SchoolFront Support Team when a school first becomes a SchoolFront customer.
Teachers can either use the default grade ranges when assigning grades to students or they can configure their own grade ranges in the system.
