Unpublish Grades
If you find you need to remove an entire section's worth of grades for a grading period from transcripts, you can use the Unpublish Grades option.

2. Go to Grades > Unpublish Grades
3. Select the grading period, search for the section, and click "Unpublish
Note: There is a difference between Unpublishing and Deleting Grades.
Unpublishing removes from transcripts, but grades data would remain with the section and student. This means unpublished grades would still print on Secondary Report Cards.
Deleting grades will remove the grade mark altogether so the grade will not print on either Transcripts or Secondary Report Cards. Deleting can only be done on a student-by-student basis by going to Grades > Edit Grades by Student.
