[quote=Anonymous]Yes, I am sure it is a mess.  It takes a long time for a sub to get access to Synergy in order to enter grades.  I think that they have to wait the number of days to go from a short-term sub to a long-term sub, then the process can start.  Which then can still take awhile.

Canvas and Synergy are two separate platforms.  Not everything assigned in Canvas turns into a grade in Synergy.  You may get notifications from Canvas about an assignment, which has nothing to do with Synergy. Teachers have to manually sync grades from Canvas to Synergy.  But, the sub can't do that until they get the right permissions.  And it is not the easiest thing in the world and takes awhile to get the hang of things.  Canvas and Synergy both think that they know what we want them to do and end up doing things we don't like.  I would import a quiz from last year and students and parents would get a notification that the quiz was scored and they received a zero on it, because Canvas put in the same due date from last year.  There are so many layers that sometimes things get mixed up.

I would wait it out a little bit and see how things pan out.  Interims are coming out, so the sub and content specialist will be working on getting the grade book up to par.[/quote]
