Although you can start a new term at any time, we recommend that you wait until the end of a term to do so. This will help minimize the number of changes that may need to be made to your roster, seating chart and options in the new term.

To start a new term for a class:

1. Switch to the class.
2. From the Tool menu, choose Term Tools->Start New Term. Easy Grade Pro will automatically put a check or x for the appropriate term in the Records window for the class. It will then switch to the new term and copy the students to it.
3. To set the calendar or edit other class options, click the View/Edit Class Options button in the window that automatically appears.

To edit the term label for a term:

1. Choose Records from the Chart menu or click the Records tool .
2. Select the Classes tab.
3. Edit the name of the term. This change applies to all classes in a gradebook.

To add the Prior Term and Next Term tools to the tool bar:

These tools can make it easier to switch back and forth between terms.
