Custom Grading Scheme

Is there a way to create a custom grading scheme in Canvas to fit this need: 

I want a teacher to be able to input any score out of 100, and the output would become either a 1 or 0. For example, any score of 1-100 would become a 1, and a 0 would remain a 0. 

When I try to do this now, Canvas uses the original 0-100 score to produce the overall grade, but I want the 1s and 0s to make up the grade. I want the original 0-100 score viewable to the student, but I don't want that score to impact the student's grade. 

Basically, this is the same as completion with a 1 for complete and a 0 for incomplete, but I want the original score viewable for feedback purposes. As of now, when I use the completion grade scheme, there is no way to show less than full points. 

Is it possible to create something like this?

Hi @jonathan_henn, I believe you might be able to accomplish what you want by using the "Grades by Points" option. And modifying the range as I did in the screenshot.
