Graduation Program

Students must have a graduation program assigned to determine academic progress towards graduation requirements.  This must be completed before a transcript is accurate.

At this time, this is a manual process.  Follow the steps below to batch add the correct graduation program to multiple students at once based on their grade 9 entry dates.  This process must be done in each non program calendar that contains active high school students.

Any Ad Hoc Filter mentioned in this article needs to be created locally.  The field for grade 9 entry date is graduation.grad9Date.

This article will be updated once this process is automated.
