As an instructor, you can request a grade sync from your Canvas gradebook to your PowerSchool gradebook. Before syncing your grades, verify that you have properly named your Canvas assignment groups for PowerSchool GPB. You must also set up assignments for SIS sync.
Notes:
- Submissions with Late status will be synced to the PowerSchool gradebook. If an assignment in Canvas is marked as Late and the late policy has deducted points from their Score, then the intended reduced Score will be posted to PowerSchool.
- Submissions with Missing or Excused status without a score will sync a 0 score to the PowerSchool gradebook.
