Administration - Manage Score Bands

Manage Score Bands

Score Bands let User Administrators control how score ranges are grouped, labeled, and colored in reporting views that display quintile-style performance data.

You can edit the default score band model or create additional score band sets for teachers and administrators to choose from in reports.

Who Can Manage Score Bands

Only users with the User Administrator role can manage score bands.

Open Score Bands

Click Administration.
Click Organization Info.
Click the blue Score Bands button.

The Score Bands page will display all score band sets created for your organization.

Default Score Band Model

By default, Classwork includes a five-band quintile model with these score ranges:

0 to 20
21 to 40
41 to 60
61 to 80
81 to 100

This default model is fully editable.

What You Can Edit

Within a score band set, you can customize the structure and appearance of the bands used in reports.

Name the overall score band set
Name each individual band
Edit the percentage range for each band
Select a color for each band
Delete bands you no longer want to use
Add new bands if you need a different structure

This allows your school or district to match reporting views to local grading language, intervention models, or performance frameworks.

Use Multiple Score Band Sets

Your organization can create more than one score band set.

When multiple score band sets exist, reports that include a quintile-style view will display a dropdown menu so teachers and administrators can choose which score band model to use when viewing data.

This makes it possible to compare the same performance data using different score band structures.

Before You Make Changes

Score band changes affect how performance data is displayed in reports across your organization.

Updating names, colors, or ranges does not change student work or raw scores, but it does change how those scores are grouped and presented in reporting views.
