six or seven letter grades.
Traditionally, the grades are A+, A, A−, B+, B, B−, C+, C, C−, D+, D, D− and F,

numerical. Numeric-to-letter-grade conversions generally vary from system

Ideas for classifiers:
1. Subject + Grade (Can appear in several formats)
Also, can add Name classifier + Grade \ ID classifier + Grade (in case of data on
a specific course)
2. Database using education relatives like: GPA, Grade:, Score, …
3. Add-in the health classifier
4. Personal feedback is also under FERPA protection, so we might add a
classifier for behavioral characters.
5. Create a student classifier which will find the private personal information
that is kept on the student as parents name, addresses, phone number, social
number, internal users information log-in and etc .
