Note:

An "X" in the gradebook means the student has been excused from the assignment and they are not penalized.

A "Z" in the gradebook means the student has not turned in this assignment and they received a zero.

A "0" in the gradebook means they turned in the assignment but didn't get any credit.

A BLANK SPACE simply means the teacher has added the assignment to the grade book. It is NOT calculated into your child's grade unless a number or a Z is entered.

The missing assignment report DOES NOT distinguish the difference between a Z and a BLANK. You would need to go to each class's grades to see if the assignment is actually missing.
