Weight categories can be modified two ways. The weight category can be updated for an individual student from their chart, or it can be modified for entire section.
Individual Student
Modifying the weight category for an individual student will only update the weights for the selected student. All other students in that class will have the previously selected weights.

Modifying the weight category for an entire section can update the weight categories for all future students enrolled in the class, or for all of the students that are currently enrolled in the class.
