The Student Academic Record domain models the various kinds of student performance reporting.
- A student transcript contains information about course-level grades and credits. A student transcript consists of a StudentAcademicRecord associated with each Session which has a CourseTranscript for each course taken.
- ExternalCourseTranscript and ExternalStudentAcademicRecord allow for the representations of situations in which only partial information is known about past academic work due to it being transferred from an ExternalEducationOrganization (e.g., for cases in which a paper transcript carries the information about a student's academic history into a new LEA, and full relationships to Courses and Sections are opaque).
- Report cards contain information for grading period grades and competencies. A report card consists of a ReportCard entity for each GradingPeriod. A Grade is associated with each Section entity.
- Gradebook contains grades and competencies for classroom quizzes, tests, homework, and projects. An assignment in a Gradebook is represented as a GradebookEntry. Each student's score for that entry is a StudentGradebookEntry which can be a grade or a CompetencyLevelDescriptor.

Report Card
A Student has a ReportCard for each GradingPeriod. A Grade is associated with each Section. For early grade levels, a StudentCompetencyObjective is assigned to CompetencyObjectives and a StudentLearningObjective is assigned to LearningObjectives, for example, assigning a "Satisfactory" for "Participates in class discussions." The StudentLearningObjective is either associated to a Section or a Program.

Gradebook
An individual assignment in a gradebook is represented as a GradebookEntry. A GradebookEntry may be mapped to LearningStandards or a LearningObjective. Each student's score for that entry is a StudentGradebookEntry which can be a grade or a CompetencyLevel.
