OpenSIS: Marking Periods
Follow these instructions
To access this page choose School Setup >> Marking Periods
Marking Periods are where you setup your school's marking periods for a school year. There are four default tiers of marking periods added during the installation: Year, Semesters, Quarters, and Progress periods. OpenSIS installation scripts create 2 Semesters and 4 Quarters by default. However, you can always have more or fewer as required by your school. Similarly, there can be any number of progress periods in a given quarter.
To add a marking period, click on the Add button (+) in the column corresponding to the type of marking period you want to add. Then, complete the marking period's information in the fields above the list of marking periods and click the "Save" button.
To edit a marking period, click on the marking period you want to change, and click on whatever value you want to change. It will automatically become editable. Update the value and click the "Save" button.
To delete a marking period, select it by clicking on its title on the list and click the "Delete" button at the top of the screen. You will be asked to confirm the deletion.
Note: You cannot delete a marking period if it has students assigned to periods in that marking period.
Notice that neither two marking periods nor two posting periods in the same tier can overlap dates.
