Grade Setup, Syncing Configuration, and Linking Courses
In order to successfully sync grades from Schoology to Skyward, you need to set up your grade book for each course and configure the course Schoology to sync. The video below will show you how to do this.
Additionally, if you teach multiple sections of a course, you may want to link your courses so that you can manage all of your sections from one course.
