Revisions to several academic policies, including a change of grade scale, were communicated to parents July 1 and were in the online back-to-school packet, as well.
If you have not had an opportunity to study these changes, please do so now. Two documents are below for you to download and read: (1) cover letter and (2) policy memo.
Based on a few surveys parents completed at Meet the Teacher Night, it appears that some parents did not get word that the changes in the weighted scale and in the quality points for honors classes are retroactive; that is, for students in grades 10, 11, and 12, we have gone back and added the quality points for honors classes and have recalculated their GPAs with the new weighted scale. Students in grade 9, of course, do not have GPAs yet.
If you have questions, please do not hesitate to email or call me.
