When numerical grades are used to assign letter grades, the following scale is used in grades kindergarten through twelve:

A -- Superior 90 – 100

B -- Above Average 89 – 80

C -- Average 70 – 79

All course grades will be calculated as follows:

Tests: 25%

Course Projects/Other: 25%

9 Weeks/Semester Exam 25%

The 9 week grade will be calculated by adding the 4 areas and dividing by 4.

The semester grade will be calculated by adding the 1^st and 2^nd nine weeks and dividing by 2. The final grade will be calculated by adding the 1^st and 2^nd semesters and dividing by 2.
