Grading Practices

Grading Scale

Report cards are available every nine weeks, at the end of each marking period. Grades are reported numerically. The following number of grade ranges are listed with their letter grade equivalent as well as the weighted GPA.

Final grades for semester courses are determined by averaging all marking period grades and counting the midterm exam as 10% and the final exam grade as 10% for the course. Full year courses are an average of four marking periods plus the mid-term and final exams.

Final Exam Procedures

All full year courses must give midterm and final examinations. A schedule will be developed for these examinations. Skill classes, which require specific classrooms, and elective courses, will administer exams during regular class periods. These courses will give exams during the last week of the course.
