Ability to change "Achievement Indicator" label on report cards.

Our school uses the term "curricular competencies" in place of "achievement indicators" when discussing student assessment, and it would be useful if we could change the label on the report cards to reflect this. At the moment we can only add a header to the assessment section, which causes both terms to be displayed rather than the header overwriting the section name, taking up a great deal of space and looking rather messy.

    Hello! This should already be customizable for you and may just be showing an old term previously used by your organization. There are two main places you'll want to check:
    On the report card template itself, you'll want to verify in the Edit Section details for the Courses grid for the header fields. You may also want to check that no column headers were inadvertently set to have that label.
    The second area to check would be your grading setup. Much of the assessment skill information on the report card is pulled directly from the grading setup. In particular, check in School Year Setup for each of the Grade plans that show on the report card. Make sure that the Assessment Type name is labeled as expected (this is editable on the left hand side vs the edit options on the right when viewing a grade plan). This is the label for a grouping of skills and is defined by your school. Most likely this is the cause.
    If those don't resolve the issue or if you have trouble finding the right place to check, reach out to Support and we'd be happy to help you get this straightened out.
    Thank you!
    Jacqueline, SIS Product Manager
