School software for American Curriculum schools
Choose American Curriculum when you create your school, and Onflows sets up Pre-KG to Grade 12, 2 terms, the Advanced Placement years and the board's grading before you type anything.

We have not yet checked this setup against the board's own published scheme. It is a sensible default: check the grading and subjects in your first week and change what does not match.

Grading, the way American Curriculum grades
The academic year runs August to June. Each stage gets its own scale, and marks entered once become the gradebook, the progress card and the parent's screen.
| Stage | Scale | Grades | Pass mark |
|---|---|---|---|
| Elementary | Standards-based 1-4A default to check | 4, 3, 2, 1 | |
| Middle School | US letter grades | A, B, C, D, F | 60% |
| High School | US letter grades | A, B, C, D, F | 60% |
The year's assessments, already planned
These arrive with their weights, so the term result adds up without a spreadsheet beside it. This plan is a common pattern rather than the board's prescribed one; change it to match yours.
| Term | Assessment | Weight |
|---|---|---|
| Semester 1 | Quizzes | 16.7% |
| Semester 1 | Unit Tests | 16.66% |
| Semester 1 | Semester Exam | 16.66% |
| Semester 2 | Quizzes | 16.66% |
| Semester 2 | Projects | 16.66% |
| Semester 2 | Final Exam | 16.66% |
Subjects at every stage
