GPA on report cards and transcripts

Turn on GPA in Report Settings, set Honors and AP weights, and see GPA on report cards and transcripts. GPA from your old system is kept as it was.

Updated 1 min read

Managira works out GPA on the 4.0 scale from your grade letters: A 4.0, B 3.0, C 2.0, D 1.0, F 0; a + adds 0.3 and a − takes 0.3 away (A+ stays 4.0). A grade that isn't a letter doesn't count.

Who can do this: Managers, and staff given Report Settings. Only managers and supervisors change the Honors and AP weights.

Turn GPA on

  1. Open Report Settings and choose the class and term.

  2. Open Advanced, tick GPA under Report Sections, and select Save Advanced.

  3. Report cards for that class and term now show the term's GPA. Layouts can print it with {{grades.gpa}} and {{grades.gpa_weighted}}.

Honors and AP weights

  1. In Advanced, under GPA weights, set what Honors and AP / IB add to a passing grade (0.5 and 1.0 unless you change them).

  2. Set each of the class's subjects to Regular, Honors or AP / IB.

  3. Select Save GPA weights.

Good to know: Report cards and transcripts then show the weighted GPA beside the unweighted one. A failing grade never gets a bonus.

On transcripts

  • Each of Managira's terms shows its GPA, and the transcript shows the GPA across all your Managira terms.
  • If your school moved from another system, each student's GPA from it is printed exactly as it was (weighted and unweighted), never worked out again.
