GradeWay for HAC vs HLS Grades

GradeWay works with any school district that uses Home Access Center for student information. FEATURES: STAY LOGGED IN: You only have to enter your HAC credentials once! GRADES: View your color-coded averages for all your courses at a glance, and for every marking period! View all of your individual grades and your class average by category. GRADE INSIGHTS: View your class averages over time to see trends and improvements. You can also see how your average has changed since the last time you opened the app, and see which grades have been recently added. WHAT IF CALCULATOR: Predict your average by adding mock grades and changing scores to see how it affects your average. This will help you better set goals for the scores you need in the future. GPA CALCULATOR: You no longer have to wait for the end of the semester to know your GPA. GradeWay calculates your weighted and unweighted GPA using all of your averages, your transcript, and all your credits. View GPA breakdowns, edit scales, and exclude courses to improve accuracy. Use the built-in what if calculator to predict changes to your GPA. PLANNER: Easily plan your homework out and set reminders for yourself, without needing a notebook or manually entering in courses yourself.
