Setting up a “Conduct” section in your Report Cards

In this article, we’ll be looking at how to configure your Report Cards in QuickSchools to contain a Conduct section (sometimes called “Behaviour”, “Citizenship” or “Character Development”) typical for elementary / primary school report cards. There are 2 available methods. This article discusses how to enter Conduct criteria directly into the Report Card template.

Setting up the Report Cards in this manner is pretty straight forward. Simply select a Report Card Template that supports Report-Level Criteria, and click on the “Customize RC Criteria” link on the far right. In this example, we’ll be using the “Quarterly Classic” template as an example:

Customize RC Criteria for Quarterly Classic

Once you click on it, you’ll be taken to the “Edit report card-level criteria” page:

Edit report card-level criteria (for Conduct section)
Edit report card-level criteria (for Conduct section)

Use the available fields to add either a text field, a dropdown, a header, a comment, a likert or a likert header. The new fields should appear in the Conduct Section:

Modifying Criteria for Report Cards
Modifying Criteria for Report Cards

If you add a “Dropdown”, clicking on the field will allow you to modify the options for the dropdown:

Finally, once you’ve saved the settings, you can open up a student’s report card, and manually enter the evaluations for the Conduct Section:

If you find a report card template that you like, which currently does not support the Conduct Section, or does not support specific fields that you’d like to use in the Conduct section, please contact our technical support staff, and we can add support for it.
