This doesn't have to be ajax or have any fancy transitions.  Just a
save button would be fine.  I guess more than anything I am asking is
there any built-in facility for saving more than one record at a time?

Investigation into the grades_controller reveals
if (!empty($this->data) {
   $this->Grade->save($this->data);

so based on that and given the grades array, can i just iterate over
the array and change $this->data and then call
   $this->Grade->save($this->data);
??
