Later The Subject Rows "Could" Have Color
In this file after September 19, 2010 update- If your student is taking an honors class or an AP class and if you need to record the class as such, then you may on each of the subject sheets. What happens next on the Information sheet is that the subjects that are either honors or ap will have a different background color.
