How I Track School + Grades in Notion 🧠📚

Notion has completely changed the way I manage my school life. I found a free template by Cassielly and then gave it my own twist 💻✨

Here’s how I use it to keep everything from grades to to-do lists in one spot 👇🏽

📁 HEAVILY CUSTOMIZED TEMPLATE

I started with Cassielly’s academic dashboard, but I changed:

• The banner and icon

• Reorganized the class schedule pages

• Renamed and styled my to-do lists

• Added personal school info sections I needed

• A few other things

🧾 ASSIGNMENTS + TO-DOs

Each class has its own page where I track:

• Due dates

• Assignment status

• Grades

• Notes, resources, & links

To-dos are color-coded and prioritized so I never miss a deadline.

📊 GRADE TRACKING

I log every test, paper, and project with the grade, weight, and category (exams, homework, etc.). Seeing the averages update in real time is super motivating.

📌 WHY IT WORKS FOR ME:

• Everything is in one place

• I actually enjoy customizing it

• It feels visual and rewarding to update

• Helps reduce my stress and overwhelm!

If you’re juggling classes, assignments, and a busy schedule, I highly recommend trying Notion—especially if you’re a visual organizer 💜
