Marking System & Weighted Grades

Report cards list numeric grade codes (100,95,etc.). the only courses included in the determination of a student’s grade point average are those offered on-campus at the senior high school during the regular school year. A differential weighting system is issued for the purpose of calculating grade point averages. A weighted course is any AP course.

Numerical grades at five point intervals with their grade points and weighted grade points are:
	Grade	Grade Points	Weighted Grade Points
	100%	4.0	4.1
	95%	3.91	4.0
	90%	3.5	3.91
	85%	3.0	3.4
	80%	2.5	2.9
	75%	2.0	2.4
	70%	1.5	1.9
	65%	1.0	1.3

SEMESTER COURSES: In semester block courses, there will be two (2) mandatory interim reports and two (2) grading periods. All grades are cumulative. The final exam/assessment counts as 10% of the final semester grade unless stated otherwise in class syllabus handouts at the beginning of the semester. (Math exams will be 20%.) A passing grade is 65% or above.

Graded Students:
	A+ 97-100	A 94-96	A- 90-93
	B+ 87-89	B 84-86	B- 80-83
