FITNESSGRAM 9 is a web-based application
that will capture the fitness scores.
FG 9 is a statewide program and is hosted by
The Cooper Institute, creators of FITNESSGRAM.
Teachers/classes/students must be imported

This training document is only for the
process of importing
teachers/classes/students into the FG 9 app.
The import process should only be done by
district IT staff.
The import file used in this process should
address all schools within a district.
If the import file is requested from a state
vendor, use the file name:
◦ Fitnessgram 9 Extract 2014


In FG 9 you will import information to create the
necessary data relationships of teacher, class,
and student. These data relationships must be
established before you can use any features in
the program, such as creating Fitnessgram test
events and entering scores.
You will first need to download your Fitnessgram
9 file from your vendor (Infinite Campus, Power
School, etc). Your vendor will provide you with
instructions for downloading the file.
◦ File name to request: Fitnessgram 9 Extract 2014


Login information is defined as a User Name and a
Password. You will need both to access FG 9.
To obtain IT login for the import process:
◦ Your user name and password may have already
been sent to the GA DOE. If so, you have your
user name and password or your PE district
supervisor may have this information.

data all together.

of ID number.
This import makes it

fields for your file.

Issue of duplicate IDs is
covered in the next slide.
 Click the Allow duplicate IDs checkbox if you have students that will be
imported into more than one class.
 If your student’s are only in one class in your import file you may want to leave
this unchecked so the import process will find duplicates and report the errors
to you.
 If you are updating information for students that are already in the database
from previous years or transferred, please check the box as they already exist.
 IT staff may want to check to see if the possibility of students being in more
than one physical education class exists for the import file in order to choose
accordingly.
