G.        Grade Verification Process – Infinite Campus

 

This document is designed to outline the grade verification process for all four quarters throughout the regular school year.  The process is NOT the same for all four quarters.  Task verification is directly linked to specific courses and therefore grading tasks may differ from course to course.
