Yes if the teacher allows it by checking the publish button. This
can be done for daily lessons, progress grades, and semester grades.

School loop can also calculate the grades according to the data put
in by the teacher like weight of assignment, points and then gives a
letter grade.

Don't know if grades can be uploaded from school loop into Aeries. I
would guess it can happen as my former district still uses Aeries
and school loop is for the teacher and parents, so it should be
possible to do that. I think that would be done at the IT end of
things rather than each teacher doing the up load.
