The document discusses how to use Powerschool to keep track of student grading and generate percent grade reports. It explains how to choose the current term, unpause the report to generate it, and export it to a CSV file. It also describes different sorting and filtering options like sorting by student, class, course, or teacher, or sorting by last grade update. The goal is to use these tools to identify things like the number of failing students, the teacher with the most failing students, the teacher who most recently updated grades, and the number of students averaging below a 10 in their classes. The first person to provide this information correctly within 15 minutes will receive a prize.
