art, business, language arts, foreign languages, mathematics, music,
physical education, science, social studies, and career/technical
subjects.
Some courses offered in English, mathematics, science, and
social studies are offered on an advanced level.
CALCULATION OF GPA
All GPA’s will be calculated on a 4.0 system. For purposes of determining class rank, the numerical average of grades will be used. All numerical grades (including audited classes) earned in grades 9, 10, 11 and first semester of the 12th will be counted toward the grade-point average used to determine class rank. Back to Top
Guidelines:
Additional points will be added each
grading period and to the semester exam grade for these advanced
classes. Advanced
Placement will receive five (5) points, and Honors will receive
three (3) points. Only
advanced classes can receive above 100 for each grading period for
the semester-exam grade.
RECOMMENDATION FOR ENROLLMENT IN
ADVANCED COURSES
When students are registering for
the second or next level of a course (such as Spanish III, Art III,
etc.), the following guidelines are strongly recommended: If the
grade in the first level or prerequisite course is A or B,
the next level is
strongly recommended; C,
the next level is recommended
with reservations; D,
the next level is strongly
discouraged since needed skills for more advanced study in that area
may be lacking. Students
may also be placed based on teacher recommendation. GRADUATION REQUIREMENTSAll State of
