Add, Edit, or Remove Benchmark on Student Record

This article tells how to add or remove benchmarks from a student record.

There are two different ways to assign benchmarks to a student.

1. Assign benchmarks to a group of students who are in the same class all at once from the Classes>Benchmarks screen. This is a good option when working with a whole class, or
2. Add benchmarks to individual students using the Students>Benchmarks screen. Use this when you're updating one or two students.
