Introducing customizable grading scales so that a school’s or teacher’s grading preferences are better reflected in Google Classroom
In order to support other forms of grading, such as letter grades or proficiency ratings (ex. unsatisfactory to excellent), we’re introducing customizable grading scales so that a school’s or teacher’s grading preferences are better reflected in Google Classroom. With this update, teachers will have the option to select from numerical, letter grade, proficiency, four-point grading scales, or set up their own scale.

Google Classroom is introducing customizable grading scales to provide teachers with more flexibility in how they assess students. Teachers can now select from numerical, letter grade, proficiency, or four-point grading scales, or create their own custom scale. These scales can be applied to new and existing assignments, and teachers can enter grades using either the point value or the scale level, with Classroom automatically displaying both to the teacher and student.

Google Classroom now supports grade export to Skyward Qmlativ SIS.
Google Classroom teachers can now export their grades to Skyward Qmlativ, a third-party Student Information System (SIS). This integration allows administrators to establish a connection between the district SIS and Google Classroom, enabling teachers to link their classes and sync assignments and grades, which reduces manual data entry and duplicative work.
