EducationGrading & Assessment3MediumTeacher$ implied
High school teachers cannot prevent students who earn an A then a D from coasting through the rest of the year due to a 55% grade floor.
No existing software addresses the specific loophole created by a mandatory grade floor combined with term-by-term grading; teachers need a tool to enforce minimum effort across all terms or weight grades to penalize coasting.

App Concept
GradeGuard Pro
GradeGuard Pro is a gradebook add-on that prevents grade-floor exploitation by automatically enforcing minimum performance thresholds each term. It recalculates final grades based on sustained effort, not just point accumulation, and alerts teachers when a student's trajectory indicates coasting. Seamlessly integrates with existing LMS gradebooks.
Key Features
- Term-weight customization to penalize grade dips
- Minimum performance alerts tied to cumulative grade floor
- Automated 'effort score' calculation based on recent performance trend
- Integration with Canvas, Google Classroom, and PowerSchool
Target Users: High school teachers and administrators in districts with mandatory grade floors, particularly for AP and non-AP courses
Revenue Model: $14.99/mo per teacher subscription; school/district bulk license $999/yr for up to 50 teachers
