While building Semester 2 schedules, it would be very beneficial to deactivate teacher viewing abilities in gradebooks for Semester 2 only. Building schedules is a process in which the Counselor assigns courses, then proceeds to shuffle the courses according to requirements that need to be met for each individual student. When teachers can view the schedules as the Counselor is beginning the process, we are bombarded with unnecessary emails and drop-ins. The capability to activate viewing abilities once the schedules are fairly settled, when teachers most definitely can offer input regarding students that may have been overlooked, would be far more efficient and less stressful for all.
