Mondays through Fridays are considered full days. GradeBook automatically calculates the last day of the school calendar based on the start date and the total number of days in the calendar. You must edit the calendar to reflect the days that school is not in session (or any other special days), and then adjust the end date based on those days. The colors that display at the bottom of the School Calendar screen have been set up on the Attendance Day Codes screen.
Once you have finished editing the calendar, you must associate the calendar with the school buildings that use the calendar.
