Aspen


 * 1) To look at the **grades for your seminar students**: click on the "Students" tab up top, tick next to the student you want to view, then go to the "Academics" tab on the left. You can dig around from there to see how to support the student. (Josh: Sept 25, 2012)
 * 2) I have figured out how to email progress reports to parents! I can only email one at a time, not the whole class, but when you have that one student you are concerned about it can help. When you are in gradebook, if you click on reports and then click progress reports the first page that pops open will ask if you want to do all students or only some. You click some then click only one students name when asked who you want. As you flip through the pages of settings (grrrr) eventually one of the pages will have an email to parent option to click. If you click that then eventually you will be asked to select which email to send it to, then voila! I have successfully sent to one parent already and ended up having a phone conference within 24 hours because of it. Definitely helpful! Alisha
 * 3) Special codes for Aspen Scores:
 * 1) You can view a student's grades in all classes:
 * Choose the Student tab at the top
 * Select the student using the check-box
 * Click on the Academics box on the left-hand side (Russ: 26 Sept 2012)

2. To view a student's attendance record, do the same first two steps as grades, but choose the Attendance box from the left-hand side. Realize that it only shows the last 13 (?) records, so you may need to arrow to look at previous pages. It is listed most current first. (Kris: 31 Oct 2012)
