Grades/Credit

(Last Updated 08/12/08)

How will I be graded?

The weighting on the grades will be divided into two categories:

• 60% - Assignments, citizenship, preparedness, participation, life skills.

• 40% - Tests, quizzes, projects and other assessments.

The school grading scale is as follows:

• A     90.0 – 100%

• B+   87.0 – 89.9%

• B     83.0 – 86.9%

• B-    80.0 – 82.9%

• C+   77.0 – 79.9%

• C     73.0 – 76.9%

• C-    70.0 – 72.9%

• D+   67.0 – 69.9%

• D     60.0 – 66.9%

• F      Below 60%

For 9th Grade Students

This is HIGH SCHOOL CREDIT!

Do your personal best and be responsible.  The grade you earn in this class affects your final high school GPA (grade point average) as much as any sophomore, junior or senior class. Set goals and work toward achieving them.  Maintain high standards for your work and learning, and meet all your assignment deadlines, because late work receives no credit. You will be given a grade at the end of each semester, which is figured into your GPA, and you earn half a credit for each semester.  Please ask questions if you are unclear about this.
