Hi @EdwardLavieri,

Aside from the notes column in the gradebook, which you already mentioned, I don't think there is a place to designate something like this in Canvas.  As a Canvas admin in higher-ed, I would say this kind of thing would be more likely to be stored in your student information system rather than the learning management system.  That's not to say that there would be no value having this in a learning management system like Canvas, but blurring the lines between these two very important campus systems can become problematic, especially in terms of keeping info in sync and also respecting privacy in certain areas.  There may be some 3rd party integrations available to add to Canvas for this, but I'm not personally aware of any.

I hope this at least gives an answer to your question, even if it's not what you were hoping to hear.
