Information Tab
- Open Grades and Attendance with your Microsoft Excel program.
- Make certain the file screen is maximized.
- You should be on the front page of the file.
The tab name for the front page is, Information. If you are not on the
Information page, go there.
- You will type in the fields which are white.
- Type your school name.
- Type your child's name (the grade book is for one child)
- Type the month and year when you will start school (do not type in the
gray box. Shown below with May 2008)
- Type in the subjects that your child is taking for the school year. Note:
All of them do not have to be filled.
- Change the picture to something else. I usually add a picture of the
child. You do not have to do this part now. Note:
You will have to unprotect the sheet to change the picture.
That is all of the basic set up for the Information Tab.
