Easy as hell:

<dtml-in database_query_over_students_score>
    <dtml-if sequence-start>
        <table border=0>
        <tr>
        <td>Student_ID</td><td>Score</td>
        </tr>
        <tr>
        <td colspan="2"><hr></td>
        </tr>
    </dtml-if>
    <tr>
    <td><dtml-var Student_ID></td>
    <td><dtml-var "'*' * Score"></td>
    </tr>
    <dtml-if sequence-end>
        <tr>
        <td colspan="2"><hr></td>
        </tr>
        <tr>
        <td>Mean</td>
        <td><dtml-var "'*' * _.int(_['mean-Score'])"></td>
        </tr>
        <tr>
        <td colspan="2"><hr></td>
        </tr>
        </table>
</dtml-in>
</dtml-if>
<dtml-var
