Purpose
Analytics end-users may want to slice and filter presentation views by grading period information, especially for viewing and aggregating grades. These calendar-related dimensions are distinct from the DateDim View because that view provides an industry-standard concept of a Date Table, whereas the school calendar dimension fields are specific to the education domain. The two could be combined; however, keeping them separate helps isolate their roles and provide flexibility on further refinements. Part of the Core View Collection.
SQL Object Name
