Average Pass/Fail Grades

The Average Pass/Fail Grades screen contains two tabs, Combine Semesters into Full Year and Split Full Year into Semesters. The Combine Semesters into Full Year tab displays students who have a failing grade in semester 1 or semester 2 in a course, along with an average grade for the two semesters that is passing. When this process is run, it will insert a new report card grade for the full year with an average of the two semesters. The Split Full Year into Semesters tab displays all failing full year student report card grades where course_history = Y and where there are two semester grade records and at least one is passing. When the process is run, it will set course_history = null for the full year grade record and course_history = Y for the two semesters, and will award credit accordingly.

The report show students with failing FY grades even if the corresponding SEM grades doesn't have a percent grade set. The report displays the letter grade if it is set on the student's report card grade for each marking period column.
