Setting up Completion Standards helps your students know exactly what they need to do each year, while making it easy for you to track their progress. From the Completion Standards page, you can assign tasks to specific grades, adjust settings like due dates and scoping, and arrange how tasks appear on student dashboards.

To configure Xello Completion Standards tasks:

1. From your educator account, click Features and select Completion Standards.

3. Select which grades you want to assign the task to.
   • Multiple grades: Assigning a task to multiple grades keeps it on the student's To-do list across years until completed. Students only need to complete the task once.
   • Cumulative tasks: For tasks requiring a minimum number of items (like interests or skills), targets build on previous work. For example, if Grade 6 requires 3 interests and Grade 7 requires 5, a student who completes 3 in Grade 6 only needs to add 2 more in Grade 7.
4. Select any additional options you'd like to apply:
   • Scope by school or group: Limit task visibility to specific schools or student groups within your chosen grades.
   • Due date: Set a deadline for the task. All set due dates automatically roll over to the following school year on June 30.
   • Grade-specific settings: Apply configuration options across all assigned grades or customize them grade by grade.
5. When finished, click Save.

Sequence tasks

The order of tasks in your configuration table determines how they appear on student To-do lists.

To rearrange the sequence of tasks: 

1. On the Completion Standards page, click and drag the task row to move it up or down.
2. Release the task in your preferred order. Changes save automatically.
