How To Enter 12th Grade/Senior Year Courses And Grades – STARS

You are required to enter all in-progress and scheduled senior-year courses on your STARS Record.

How to Mark Senior-Year Courses as "In Progress"

Navigate to Enter Coursework > Enter Coursework for 12th Grade
Tip: Update your Dates of Attendance if your senior year isn’t showing.
In the Grade dropdown, select In Progress for any course that does not yet have a final grade. This includes second-semester and full-year courses still in progress.
Alert: Do not select Incomplete or NG – No Grade/Not In Progress for active or scheduled senior-year courses.

Missing Your Senior-Year?

If your senior year is missing from the Enter Coursework screen:

Go to the Enter High Schools page.
Review your Dates of Attendance.
Make sure your “To” date matches your expected graduation month and year (e.g., 06/2026).
Ensure your attendance dates cover all four years of high school.

The system generates academic years based on your attendance dates.

Graduating Early?

If you're graduating high school early—whether in December or after just three years—be sure to follow the correct steps when completing your STARS Record.
