Grade - excused

@Grades

Teacher: I am looking for a way to send a message to students from GRADES who haven't uploaded their assignments.
I don't want to send the same message to the students that have the Excused "grade" - because they are excused from the assignment.
I can't figure out how to do this without having to do some manual deletion in the recipient list. When you have to manually remove 120 students from a course with many students and a lot of assignments, it's not the best feature. Any ideas?

Hi
I am not sure who decided that this was the solution to my question - it is not.
But thank you for trying.

Hi @siren_vegusdal ...

I'm not sure who marked my reply as a solution...but I can tell you that while it might not be "the" solution.... it is "a" solution.  The information I provided might not have provided exactly the information you were looking for, but it may be a work-around for you or for anyone else who happens to see this particular topic.  So, my assumption is that the information I provided earlier was marked as a solution for those reasons.  My $0.02 ... for what it's worth.  Hope this helps.
