EducationGradebook Management & Assessment3MediumTeacher$ implied

Teachers maintain personal gradebooks outside school LMS because official systems lack flexibility for grade curves, auto-zeroing missing work, and efficient data entry.

School-provided LMS/SIS gradebooks lack features like grade curves, auto-zero for missing work, session timeout resilience, and fast data entry, forcing teachers to duplicate work.
